Easter 2017

It's a beautiful Easter Sunday here in Colorado. Our family had a really nice Easter weekend! We went to church last night which is SO weird. Easter Sunday has now become Easter Saturday. He is risen, he is risen indeed...but not really. Not until tomorrow. Weird. But it worked really well for us for a number of reasons.

We spent the morning looking for Easter eggs and then playing with our toys in our Easter basket. This was the first year we held an Easter egg hunt in our yard and Lucas had SO MUCH FUN! After taking our tradition family picture in the yard we went to breakfast at one of our favorite breakfast spots. Both kids took a nap today. Lucas gave up naps a couple months ago but still does quiet time...which is not even kinda quiet but I love that he plays in his room for almost an hour each day and today apparently that turned into a nap! I mean BOTH kids took a nap today, AT THE SAME TIME. After nap we went to the park. It was fun seeing so many family's there, grown adults in the field throwing Frisbees and flying kites. Just some solid family time. We had a nice dinner together and our typical Sunday Night Movie night in our living room. I just wish these days would go so much slower! Beautiful Easter and so much to be thankful for!

Thank you Jesus for dying for my sins!

Luke 24:6-7 He is not here; he is risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 'The Son of Man must be delivered over the hands of the sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.'

  1. We went to church last night too and I feel exactly the same! So weird yet very practical for multiple reasons! God bless ✝️
