Easter Sunday

We celebrated the Risen Lord on Sunday! Praise Jesus for reuniting us with God, for dwelling among us, for being our substitution, for washing away our sin, for giving us eternal life with our Lord... I could go on and on... I think that may be the point!


We had to do a timer shot for our Easter picture, but at least you get to see some of the boy's outfit. Should have gotten a better shot of it. I'll be sure to do it the next time he wears it.

I also didn't get a shot of his whole Easter basket, but I honestly made and put it all together the night before! I made him some Kool-Aid play dough. Really easy - we'll be trying this out this week.

I refilled our previous bubble container with homemade bubbles. Unbelievably easy. The play dough and bubble manufacturers have a serious racket going. These were both so simple to make, and I had most of the ingredients on hand.

I printed off fun coloring pages and crayons that we had collected from our beloved Publix and restaurants. Cheap? Yes, but I prefer to be called resourceful.

Josiah seriously pigged out on the jelly beans and graham crackers in his basket. He shoved a way too many in his mouth; it was really quite funny. This was his pre-Easter outfit (aka I didn't want to get his Easter clothes dirty before church).

Later that night we all pigged out on Easter dinner with our friends Aaron and Erin, and Lisa and her son Silas. Erin brought crock pot mac and cheese, and we also had yummy ham, yeast rolls, summer squash gratin and peach cobbler. And the delicious coffee Aaron and Erin brought us from Hawaii! Quite a feast with great friends.
