Happy Easter!

 ➕"I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?" -- John 11:25-26

"But the Angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.  He is not here, for he has risen, as he said.  ~ Matthew 28:5-6

Happy Easter!  It sure has been a glorious weekend.  The weather has been beautiful and Spring like, and there are all sorts of signs of new life emerging.  I have thought so much of my Dad this weekend, especially in church this morning.  It's so hard to have another holiday pass without him, but Easter is a sign of hope, renewal and new life.  My three girls have provided comfort, laughter and lots and lots of chaos!  

We kicked off the weekend with an Easter egg coloring party at Alexa's house:

Followed by our annual Easter Egg Hunt at Heritage Prairie Farm with lots of friends:

I am so, so blessed

Good haul!

1st time on the patio at the Turf Room this year!  It was gorgeous outside!

After the egg hunt and lunch with the Palmers at The Turf Room, we spent the rest of the day outside.  Playing bubbles, water table, mowing, running, and doing gymnastics in the yard.  It was perfect.

This morning we woke up to goodies from the Easter Bunny.  He came to our house!

We are waiting on Blakesley to wake up from her nap, and then we are heading over to our dear friends, the Poterek's house, for Easter lunch.
