I'm a week late, but we really did have a great Easter! We had a really fun Easter egg hunt/Spring festival at our church on Saturday. It was really nice to be able to go as a family, and fellowship with our church family. I heard that over 85 kids showed up, and they all seemed to have a really good time! Eli tried out his first bounce house, and was NOT a fan. He clung to me for dear life, and we quickly made an exit. Maybe next time!
This boy sure does love being outside! He didn't seem to care that his new sandals were no longer brown, but now yellow from the pollen.
Our Easter weekend was packed full with fun activities, and we really enjoyed being able to celebrate with our family and friends. Aside from all of the Easter egg hunts, chocolate bunnies, and really good food, we were able to really reflect on the true meaning of Easter. We can't wait until Eli is old enough to understand what this special holiday is all about.
It's always good to see churches packed full of people on Easter morning, but it also gives me the burning desire to get those same people coming back each and every Sunday morning. Our Pastor delivered a powerful message, that hit home especially hard within Danny and I. We're so thankful that even in our darkest of days, we have our Lord and Savior to turn to for guidance.
One day last week, I came in to find Eli with his 'pants on the ground.' I guess he has a little too much growing room in those shorts! This boy constantly keeps us laughing.
This weekend we were able to catch up on some family time. On Saturday, we headed out to Chaplin park on the island. We did our first picnic lunch of the Spring, and let Eli and Bailey play their little hearts out. The weather was just perfect! We went out to dinner with several good friends Saturday night, and of course have watched just about every single second of the Master's coverage thus far!
