Easter


What a wonderful day to celebrate our Lord Jesus!


This year we helped tell the Easter story to Eli using 'The 12 days of Easter Eggs'. Each egg has a small part of the story, verse, and something to represent the story. Example, 3 dimes to represent the 30 pieces of silver. I taped everything to the window in the kitchen so we could go over the eggs each day. It is such a joy to teach my child the story of my Jesus!


For Easter this year we meet at our house on Saturday for some family time. Everyone headed to church that evening for a wonderful Easter service and then home for family pictures and dinner. Amy and I prepped everything before we left for church so it would not take long to get the food on the table. We also celebrated Mimi's birthday with flowers and cards!



Here are a few pics of the day....
