Easter 2008

The kids LOVE easter! They love everything from coloring eggs:
and showing them off:
To dressing up in their new clothes for church--(even after getting up at 6:30 a.m.!!) and hunting for eggs hidden by the Easter bunny, and checking out their easter baskets:
And going to "Tasha Grandma's" (my grandma) house to hunt more eggs: And pointing out to grandma where an egg is hidden:

Can you tell we had fun? It was a great day--we love getting to see the family at grandma's house. We adults hide the plastic eggs for the teenagers, and they find them , and then they hide them for us--and trust me, they really hide them! It was great!
At lunch that day, Josh and I were talking about how we wonder if the kids even know what Easter is really all about...I figured they think Easter equals Easter bunny, candy, and little presents. Which it still does, but we asked them while we were eating, and Dustin and Jodee both knew that it was a day to remember how Jesus had died and came back to life. We were SO proud--and relieved!
Side note: We got a call on Saturday from Josh's parents telling us that his granfather, Pop pop, had a heart attack. He went in on Saturday and had a stint put in to relieve the pain, and is doing better. Please keep him in your prayers!!
