Easter Weekend

We had a lovely Easter this year. So lovely, that I had to take approximately 150 photos to document it. Praise the Lord for digital cameras! Here are some of my favorite shots.

We took Daniel to a local Easter egg hunt on Saturday morning. Aunt Sara and Uncle Kevin also came to watch. There were so many kids...it was pretty fierce competition for the eggs!



We spent Saturday afternoon with Brian's mom, Sara, and Kevin. We played cards, walked to the park, and just had fun together!

Swinging on his belly!

In case you are wondering, that huge tank sits at our local park. Daniel loves climbing on it with Brian while I hover about below, shouting "Be careful!" and holding my arms out to catch Daniel in case he falls.

On Easter Sunday, we went to church and then ate a delicious meal at my grandparent's house.

After dinner my aunt, uncle, and cousins arranged an Easter egg hunt for Daniel. He loved it...especially the jelly beans and ring pops!


And here is our little family of three.

Praise the Lord for His sacrifice, so that we can have abundant life and spend eternity with Him! We serve a risen Savior!

Anniversaries

Well, it seems I have taken a three week break from blogging! Funny how the time slips away without me realizing it. Over the interim, I missed blogging about some very important happenings. First of all, Brian and I celebrated our sixth anniversary at the end of March. Yea!

And just three days after our anniversary, my parents celebrated their 36th anniversary!

And just a week later, Brian's sister Sara and her husband Kevin celebrated their very first anniversary!

You want to know something absolutely crazy about the three couples shown above? Each one of us had our first anniversaries on Easter. What are the odds of that? Brian and I won't have another Easter anniversary until our 12th anniversary, I believe.

Happy anniversary to all of us!
