Happy Easter, a Little Late

Our Easter was pretty typical here. We started off the morning at church and finished the day hunting easter eggs and stuffing ourselves with the most delicious food on earth. All in all, a great day.
What I enjoy most about Easter is that my kids know why we celebrate Easter. Not because we love hunting for candy filled eggs, but that Christ died for our sins and rose so that we could be in paradise with Him forever. One of my favorite moments of the day was after we were done eating. My brother in law broke out into song and we as a big family, sang songs together about the sacrifice of our Lord. It was a beautiful moment, but thanks for bearing with me!! (You really had to be there)

Sammy's Party Pics

Ok, here they are! We had so much fun having Sammy's party. The family was there to celebrate with us and yes.. there are pictures of the cake (just for you Mary) enjoy!!

Happy Birthday Sammy!

It's hard to believe my "baby" is now three years old. He was just born yesterday, how could he be three already?? We had a fun day and celebrated with a party this evening (I will post pics later.) Today I have been reminded of all the ways God has blessed us as a family and what a blessing and a joy Sammy has been to us. He is a sweet boy and such a sweet personality. He makes us laugh all day and is quick to run over and give me lots of hugs!

Now don't get me wrong...I love my children very much. But when I look at these pictures I don't remember him being quite so puffy and squished looking. Oh well, I remember thinking he was the best looking baby in the whole world then. You're a handsome boy now Sammy!
