Resurrection Day!


We were so blessed to spend Easter with our precious New Jersey friends. At first, we weren't sure if we were going to make it to church since both the boys were feeling a bit sick, but we decided to go and I'm so glad that we did. The pastor had a great sermon about the power of our Risen Lord in our life. In the past, Christians would greet each other by saying, "He is Risen" and the response would be, "He is Risen indeed!" Those weren't just words, they were hope in desperate times and the strength to carry on from one day to the next. This is the power that we have to face each joy and trial. A great reminder on Easter morning. 
 The kiddos had an Easter Egg hunt in the afternoon and had a blast! Caleb was so excited to run around finding eggs. He just kept saying, "egg, egg, egg" so fun, and he was good at finding them to. He even found some of the ones we hid for the "big" boys! After the egg hunt, we went inside and dumped all the eggs into one big pile and divided them up evenly for all the kids. Then we let the kids get their treats...notice in the picture of Kaden that he has organized all of his treats into neat little piles...hmmmm...wonder where he gets that! :)
