REJOICE! He is RISEN!
Easter is my favorite holiday. I try to make a bigger deal about it than Christmas. Its important to celebrate Christ's birth, but today, the day we celebrate His resurrection, is of vital importance to our very existence. So its kind of a big deal around here. :) We are VICTORIOUS because Christ died for US and was raised to life again so that we could have atonement for our sins and spend eternity with God the Father. Praise Him!
We had a great day. The kids got their baskets full of (mostly) all-natural and organic goodies. Even Grandma (who always makes them Easter bags) was good this year and did mostly all-natural treats. (Makes my heart smile!) We fill the plastic eggs with Annie's cheddar/graham bunnies, organic fruit bunnies, and coins. They also got books, a slinky, a toothbrush, and a few other party favor type things from Grandma. One of the "junky" treats we gave them were the Reeses Pieces "carrots"--YUM. We did the egg hunt at the new house. So. Much. Fun. Then, we served at our Church's Campo Verde Easter service. Once home, it was time to get dinner started while Peter went off to work. Dinner is going to be ham, potato salad, BBQ baked beans (homemade sauce!), green beans, and rolls. The weather is beautiful today so we are going outside to enjoy it while dinner is cooking! Hope you all had a blessed Easter!
Dyeing eggs last night....cage free, organic brown eggs are not the best for dyeing. Ugh, I despise artificial coloring.
