Easter weekend is always an exciting time! This year was Giana's first Easter. At HBC Saturday Night, my friend's little girl (Kaelyn) gave me a beautiful letter. It said Happy Easter and it had two lists on it about Easter. On the first list, she wrote Easter is NOT about the Easter bunny, the presents, the Easter egg hunt, the friends, the pigging out....(that made me chuckle). Then on the second list she wrote that Easter IS about the family, and that Jesus was raised from the dead 3 days after His death. Wow, this little girl is in 4th grade! Don't we all find ourselves at every holiday getting wrapped up in the planning, giving of presents, decorating, cooking? We lose focus of why we are celebrating it! It took a little girl to remind me of why we celebrate Easter. We have Savior who died for our sins and rose from the dead. We have victory over death because of His resurrection!

Easter Dinner
We had a Garden Theme for Easter (herbs in the tin pots, flower pots, mason jars for drinks...I'll blog about my Spring decor projects soon!). Jared's parents came over for the Easter dinner. It was a wonderful time (even though the guys forced Faye and I to watch The Masters)!!

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter! God Bless! -AM
