Easter Reflections...

I hope that everybody had an awesome Easter Sunday...
Celebrating our Risen Lord!!

We had a great weekend!!
Son #3 came for a visit and brought along Daughter #2 and
 my sister's 2 youngest kids...
Cousins #5 and #6.
It was a blast!

Easter booty!!  Woo Hoo!!
We don't really eat a lot of candy anymore--but we do
indulge on Easter.

Son #6 was my egg coloring helper since
most of the other kids were having a good time
with their guests.  He really had a lot of fun getting
to do the eggs without his older brothers (or sisters)
taking over the project.  :-)


The birthday girls.
This year their birthdays fell just a few days before Easter.
Daughter #2 has her birthday one day before
Daughter #4.

One year, when Daughter #2 was just 3 or 4, her birthday
fell on Easter.  She was really angry to discover the next year
that it wasn't on Easter again. 
She fussed and fumed for weeks!!  ;-)

This year Son #3 took the Birthday Girls and Cousin #5
out to the movies to see The Hunger Games. 
Of course they loved it (though they said it was stressful).  :-)

Daughter #4 and Cousin #5.
Best Friends!!
They are just a few months apart in age.

The "little" boys.
Bundles of energy, always on the go.

All the kiddos present.
They're so goofy!!  Never a dull moment!!
Do you see the ball that Son #6 stuck up his shirt?



My Kombucha was a huge hit!!!
I gave Son #3 his own gallon jar to brew at his own place.
What a ham!!!

All in all a wonderful weekend!!
So many blessings to be thankful for!!!


Thank you Jesus!!!!
