Easter Blessings

Easter is one of my favorite times of the year. It is a time to reflect and celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is a time to remember that God so graciously sent his only son to die for our sins so that we could LIVE today. I also love family time and we often spend time with family on Easter Sunday! We started our Easter morning at Covenant with an awesome sermon and then headed to Jimmy and Kim's for lunch. Kim is an awesome cook and loves to share her home with her family and friends. I can't even begin to tell you all that she had to serve for lunch. All I can remember is that I enjoyed everything on my plate! After filling our bellies at the Evan's we headed to my Aunt Kay and Guy's house to eat some more and enjoy my Dad's side of the family. Once again it was great to see everyone because I love my family!!!!! Thank you Jesus for the awesome family and friends that we have in our lives! Most of my family had not seen Little Luke Allen yet. He was so comfortable in my Aunt Kim's arms while he got all her kisses!

Kayley was the first to hold Luke Allen. She absolutley loves all the cousins so its no wonder that she wanted to be the first to hold him. I wished she lived because she would be a wonderful babysitter!

Just taking all this attention in! Cousin Kelly had to get some of Luke's sugar too!

Cristan, Grandma Shirley, and Grandma Josie all admiring Luke Allen!

Bobby and Landon playing on the bean bag while waiting on lunch to be served! We all joined hands and Bobby said a wonderful easter blessing before we ate.

Family picture time! We are always in 100 different directions so I thought it would be great to get a snap shot of the entire family. I think we look pretty good!!

Ashlyn got this new swingset for Easter. She not quite big enough to climb on her own yet so Cristan was there to help!!

Ashlyn giving a big smile when she made it to the top! She is adorable
