Easter

Easter weather where we live is always unpredictable.  There has only been a handful of memories made outside, most of our Easter egg hunts have been inside, so I wanted to try something a little different this year.  While the kids were cleaning downstairs, (I know how to get something done, candy as an incentive always seems to work :)  I set up a string maze of sorts. They each chose a color and followed the string with eggs along the way until they reached the end.  I loved hearing them talk to themselves as they followed the string, very indicative of their age, "this is stupid", my 13 year old, "this is crazy", my 11 year old, and a very enthusiastic "this is so fun", my 8 year old.  This may be a tradition that sticks, who knows.  But it was fun trying something a little different this year.

And it begins....








 






This is how Troy participated in the egg hunt, pretty comfortable  huh?


Yep, it was all worth it!

The smile says it all.


We spent Sunday morning watching The Lamb of God and remembering the real reason we celebrate Easter.  It was really a wonderful holiday.
