Easter Weekend

We celebrated Easter weekend with Mike's Family. His Grandfather is not doing well, so the entire family was able to come to Grandma's for Easter. We had lots of fun together. Saturday was a normal day at Grandma's, except for the "out to eat" part. We went to Cody's Roadhouse for an early dinner. Off to Wally World to buy eggs so some could be dyed, filled and hunted.


Sunday, Mike and I headed to the early service and Pastor Lancaster did a wonderful job teaching about why we can believe that the resurrection is true. After the service, we came home to get Cooper--we're not welcome at Grandma's unless Cooper is with us! Mike's parents hid eggs outside while we were inside with the blinds closed. We all had our bags and were ready to hung! The little kids got a 1 minute start. We had lots of fun. That was the first time I have been on an egg hunt in many years!


I was amazed that we all found about the same number of eggs, kids and adults. (It was really fun b/c some of the eggs had money in them!) A funny moment was when Cooper was hunting and he spotted a hard boiled egg and left his mark on it! We laughed and laughed! Then, when we counted up the eggs, we were still missing about 4 eggs. Mike's dad told us for every egg we find now, we get one dollar! They were all found very quickly--Mike and I both found one, so we got two more dollars!!! We went to visit Grandpa, but he was taking a nap so we didn't want to disturb him. We came back to Grandma's and Easter dinner was almost ready. What a feast! Grandma knows how to cook!

We had a great Easter. I was reminded today that Easter should not be celebrated one day a year, but every day for that is why we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ!
Happy Easter!
