We had great Easter weekend beginning on Friday with Cross Walk – which is what you see a photo of below – and a Good Friday evening service. Saturday was full of egg dyeing and baseball practice. The kids still love to dye eggs, and they would have done many more than the 40 I boiled. If you look closely, you will notice that, not only is Cooper wearing a University of Oklahoma cap, but he also made an egg with the OU logo on it. We are ashamed at our dismal parenting skills when it comes to football team/school loyalty. His reasoning is that he was born in Oklahoma. Well, this is true, but he was born in STILLWATER, OK. At least the kid could be a Cowboy fan. And just so you know…this sort of individualism spills over into some other areas of our middle-child’s life. 🙂

Easter Sunday was bright and sunny, but cold and windy – at least there was no snow or rain! We had a wonderful time of worship, lunch at church, and friends over for the afternoon. Kayla enjoyed having the McCullah girls over to hide and hunt eggs with, and then more friends arrived for dinner. Fun day of sunshine, fellowship, and remembering the amazing gift of resurrection that is possible in our daily lives because of Christ.
(The pastor’s sermon was amazing, as usual!)
