Easter




We had a great Easter this year. I was able to get everyone dressed well and only bought the two little girls dresses and one pair of pants for Louie and a shirt for Noah.
I know the reason for the day is to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ but I just needed the kids to "look" put together. For some reason people are watching large families to make sure you are doing it "right." Anyway, we got to Church on time and had my grandparents and mom over for dinner. Real simple but nice. It was fun to see Eden coloring easter eggs and hunting them for the first time. I don't have pics of the coloring cause I only took video. Carrying around cameras with 6 kids gets tricky! Someday when I figure out the video/computer I will post video.
The kids ate candy all day! Isn't that what it is about when you are young.
I wanted to make sure we weren't missing the true reason so I started quizzing my 7 year old about the story of Easter and he gave me more info than I think I even knew. I was so proud of him. I know my kids love the Lord. That is a great feeling.
Thank you Jesus for giving your life for our Salvation!
