Easter

We decided since our church was having an 8AM traditional Easter service (the good ol' hymns and preaching) that we would attend that service. It worked out really well for us. My dad had volunteered to work in the nursery at that time and got to work in Clayton's class. When we handed Clayton to him, Clay didn't even realize he was being dropped off. We went to Sunday School after the service and then came home--more than an hour earlier than we normally do. We would do that every week if an 8AM service was offered.
We spent a little time at home (taking our family picture) before going to Mike's parents'. The kids ate lunch early and were taking naps when my parents and grandma arrived. We ate a peaceful lunch and then chatted and hid eggs while the kids napped. Then it was time for the egg hunt. It was fun to watch the kids. Clay wasn't real interested, but he collected a few and then dumped them out and collected them again. Cute. Jenelle ran as fast as she could to collect them. We had fun watching them. It was such a beautiful day God provided for Easter.

Thank You, Jesus, for being alive and for living and in and through us!

Jenelle was proud of the eggs she found. Some she found in Clayton's bucket.:)Clayton picked up some eggs slowly after he figured it out a bit. Jenelle figured it out rather quickly.
