Easter News

Our Easter weekend was a beautiful one, starting with and a special surprise for our precious June-bug.  A very generous family had given us a piano.  You should have seen her face on Saturday morning.  She would have said..."Wait!  Why is there a piano in our living room?"  She can now officially start becoming a piano sevant.







Saturday continued with blue-sky weather, a T-Ball game for James, egg dyeing and an awesome egg hunt at our home on Saturday. Everyone participated with eagerness...especially when they figured out there was exactly one all-natural jellybean in each egg.  I know, I make them work for 'em.  The day ended with the building of a tree house for James.  He drew up plans weeks ago....now we just need to paint it rainbow colors. Really, this story is best told in pictures.

We ended our weekend with good news on Sunday morning.  We were happy to celebrate with Grandma and Grandpa!

"Death swallowed by triumphant LIFE!  Who got the last word, oh death?  Oh death, who is afraid of you now?  It was sin that made death so frightening and law-code guilt that gave sin its leverage, its destructive power. But now, in a single, victorious stroke of LIFE, all three-sin, guilt, death-are gone, the gift of our Master, Jesus Christ."  from I Corinthians 15 (the MSG)






Happy Easter eve!
