Easter

Hope everyone had a good Easter. Ours was very busy. Friday we had some friends over to enjoy some tea in our new cups that we got from Kohls. We ended up playing a couple of intense games of Uno. It was one of the most intense games I've played. Right up there with the games my parents used to play with their friends.

Saturday we had Katy Veil and the Potters over to decorate eggs. We did this last year too, so I guess its a tradition now. After that we watched the movie Enchanted. Its pretty good. Although I didn't get to see very much of it because I was busy getting the ham and potatoes ready for Sunday. Chris helped me with the potatoes until he cut his finger with the peeler. So, I got to peel and slice 10 pounds of potatoes by myself.

Sunday after we went to church we had a lot of people over for a big Easter potluck. We did this last year too. Had so much good food. And plenty of dessert. Then we did the Easter egg hunt. This year we got to do it outside. Even though it was a little bit chilly it wasn't snowing so we ventured out to hide the eggs. Joe had a lot of fun throwing the eggs that he found.

Well, we have a lot of pictures and videos. Hope you enjoy them. Hope you all had a relaxing Easter and remembered to thank God for making it possible to have this holiday in the first place. It's so easy to get wrapped up in not having to work and all the food, but I couldn't imagine not having a reason to celebrate this holiday. Jesus endured so much on that cross for us. It's a solemn thought until you wait a few days and then think of how glorious that resurrection must have been. Thank you Jesus for what you did for me and every one else. Happy Resurrection Day!!

We did an Easter Egg hunt again. This year we were able to do it outside.





This is everybody looking for the last egg. Le Ann and I hid them. Nice job Le Ann. We had to play "hot cold" to help them find it.
