Easter 2009

This was a good Easter. There was just something about this day that I can't quite describe. It was peaceful, special, and we were able to spend some quality time with our family. Our Easter started out with church, of course. Trent wore his new Polo that Grammy gave him. Natalee wore a new dress that me and Nathan bought her. The church service was good - it always is. We were able to reflect upon the real meaning of Easter - that Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again from the grave so that we might receive salvation through Him. After services, Grammy (Nathan's mom) cooked a delicious dinner. Actually, you will find us around her table every Sunday! After a meal of ham, turkey and dressing, macaroni, rolls, corn casserole, and all the trimmings......AND dessert...we were stuffed! However, Natalee and Trent still had to hunt Easter eggs. So, Nathan and Rick hid the eggs in the front yard and the kids had a great time finding them. After the egg hunt, we took the kids home and they took a nap. In evening, we went back to church for the night service. Again, it was good. Pictured you will see Natalee and Trent on the steps of our church and you will see each of them as they opened their Easter baskets which were filled with yummy treats! Let me just say again that THIS was a good Easter.
