Easter

We, of course, had a wonderful Easter weekend (minus the nasty weather). Saturday, we got together with some of my family and after church, we went to Humphreys for more festivities.

It was good to see siblings back from school and we probably have had enough ham to last us to next Easter.

We also, obviously, finished our Easter advent with Amelia. It was alot of fun to be able to go through the death and resurrection of Christ with someone who was hearing it ... all together, for the first time. I think she enjoyed it too. Friday and Saturday, because of where we were in the story, Amelia kept walking around saying, "Jesus in the tomb." Good thing Sunday came ... :)

It's been great to hear the story sink in a little and throughout the week she has been bringing up Peter, and the Cross, and of course, Jesus in the tomb. And now, everytime she gets her hands on an egg she says, "Easter egg ... Jesus"

She is such a blessing and we are so very thankful for the people around her, (family, friends, church) to speak the Word into her life and we pray she will one day begin to grasp what this weekend really means.

"Savior, worthy of honor and glory, Worthy of all our praise... for You overcame.

Jesus, awesome in power forever, Awesome and great is your name ... for You overcame.

SO thankful for my Redeemer ...

Here's some pictures from the weekend:

Flying with Uncle Luke.

the only picture we got of all three of us this weekend. Why would Amelia look? I bet you can't guess how many people were standing behind the camera, calling, smiling, beckoning her to look ... stubborn.

ahh, my coconut cake that was delicious ... oh my.

Easter Eggs.

Going forward this week ...
