A Wonderful Easter Weekend

As the title of this post says, we had a wonderful Easter weekend.  Saturday morning we headed down to Crown Center to check out the Wizard of Oz exhibit.  We also visited Kaleidoscope while we were there.  The weather was beautiful so we spent the rest of the afternoon and evening outside playing with friends and riding trikes.  This morning the Easter Bunny left some eggs for the girls (filled with marshmallows and change for piggy banks) as well as new baseball gloves, a bat, and a tee.  Then we got all "dolled up" and headed to church for a great service.  Then late afternoon and evening was spent with our great friends and neighbors, the Southards, along with some other families who don't have extended families in the area.  The major highlights from the evening were the egg hunt and the real live baby chicks that were brought for the kids to see and hold!!!  We couldn't have asked for a better weekend.  Jesus is alive and we pray that others have Him in their lives too!
