Easter Festivities

 W Bh
It is almost midnight here. I'm tired but close my day with a smile on my face and peace in my heart.

 
Our family Easter gathering was on Friday evening. The first order of the evening was to open baskets from BonBon and Grandy.


I tell you these babies find joy in the smallest of things.

Seriously, this baby girl was excited over band aids.


Both girls got shades and Connor got a Batman umbrella. All are ready for Spring.


We ate our Yummies and then we hunted eggs.

My spunky little angel was so proud of the little duck that was in her basket.


As you can see, little man was serious about the egg business.


They enjoyed themselves for sure. 


Grandy enjoyed himself too. He's the happiest when he's with these babies.


Connor found the most.


Cora found the prize egg. Of course, Grandy made sure they all got a prize.

Last week I didn't feel up to par. My joints   hurt and back ached. I guess it was what the old timers called Spring Fever. Just an overall feeling of fatigue. I stayed home from Connor's game on Saturday and rested up. We kept the oldest kids that night for Mommy and Daddy to attend a concert. They got in at 12:30 and I got in the bed at 2:00 am. 

The day was not about Easter bunnies or Easter eggs or pretty dresses or shirts and ties. 


We celebrated our Risen Lord. What an awesome worship experience!  

That afternoon I rested. 

I declare to you, He is risen.  

He is risen indeed!

  2. A wonderful post, talked about aches & pain and my back. I am getting older this year but I never expected my limitations. I wanted to get a job but I am only good for about 4-5 hours and then I am done. My family are in TX so every 3 months we go to baby sit.
