My brain is full right now. I have so many thoughts running through my head, I have a 30 second delay in falling asleep when my head hits my pillow. Perhaps writing them down will ease my drowsiness.
#1. Easter is HERE!! My favorite holiday and time of the year! Hooray! It feels even better than Christmas! Wahoo!

#2. I find it ironic that the meaning of my name is Lily. Hence the Lily is usually the symbol of Easter. The Easter Lily. For many, the beautiful trumpet-shaped white flowers symbolize purity, virtue, innocence, hope and life—the spiritual essence of Easter.
Yeah, I don't think it's a coincidence either!
#3. High School Musical 2 has put me in the mood for summer.
Shae rented this from the library and has watched it 2,309,323 times. I don't mind, I am ready for summer!
#4. Reading the Book of Mormon in 30 days.
I did this last year and I loved it! April is just the best month for me to do this. I do read the BOM all through out the year, but I love taking the month of April and reading it like a book so the stories all fit together. That's 18 pages a day. Piece of cake. I have also decided to start a blog journal about what I read for the day and jot down any spiritual moments through out my day. I do this in my journal, but writing takes longer than typing. Plus, I can add pictures to my blog scripture journal. We will see how that plays out.
#5. Manti Temple
I am literally counting down the days until we get to visit the Manti Temple again! One of my favorites and I have been told to visit the cafeteria for dinner. Oh, how I long to go to the Manti Temple!
#6. Those of you that know me, know that I have a tradition of having a Christ Centered Easter. I have now began the preparations for my week. This year, a lot of my nieces and nephews are now 12+ so it will be so much fun to do the activities as though I am doing them with the youth that I get to serve with. I am so excited about some of my plans.
#6. Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! I need a vacay!
#7. Mary of Magdalene.

This was a great post! Thanks for sharing your feelings about Easter! I love Easter too! I look forward to it! I love the Savior!!
You have a great weekend too! That is so awesome you are going to hear Sheri Dew. You are lucky!
I know you LOVE this holiday.. so I am very excited for you too!
Wow.. the BOM in 30 days would be quite something. Good luck with that.
Have fun at the cabin! I'm sure you will do great things!
Now I'm excited for Easter. Thanks just what I needed.
I might do the BoM in 30 days with you too. What a great challenge! I don't think I have done that since my mission.
I would love to chat with you about what you do the week of Easter. You always have fantastic ideas and I'd love to pick your brain.
I loved everything you have shared here...and the cafe at the Manti is very good! Have a wonderful spring! :D
Beautiful post Suzanne.
I can't wait to hear about all your special plans for Easter. It seems like I remember last year you went to a cabin and I see that in Ann's comment. That will be fun.
I am impressed and motivated - What a great idea to take April to read the Book of Mormon - Fabulous!!
