Happy Easter

Just wanted to take this time to wish all of my readers a very Happy Easter. We love Easter in our house not only for the fun of coloring Easter Eggs and a visit from a very special bunny....but also for the true reason we celebrate this day. We have been talking to both Eva and Jaden a lot about the true meaning of Easter, as well as reading the Easter story to them in their bible. Jaden is still a little young to understand...but Eva is starting to grasp it. I love to hear Eva say, "we celebrate Easter because Jesus died on the cross...and on Easter he came back to life." Her simple explanation warms our hearts.

So on Sunday this family will be enjoying the goodies that the Easter Bunny left, as well as running around to find all of the Easter Eggs he hid before the dog finds them....and we will also be standing together in church celebrating the reason this blessed holiday is so special.

Have a beautiful Easter my friends.

Hugs,
Jamie

Happy Easter! We too like everything that comes with Easter...coloring eggs, hunting for hidden eggs, and talking about the Easter story. We have a set of Resurrection Eggs that helps tell the story in a way fun for kids. The boys really enjoy them.

Jamie- It was so nice to see you guys at church on Sunday. Loved the kids Easter outfits and Eva's "Mickey Mouse" hair do! Of course that just gives my mom ammo regarding Jentry's hair...as soon as we got in the truck to go to lunch she said "You are going to have Jentry's hair looking cute like that...right??" UGH!
