Happy Easter

And a Happy Easter it was. We had a busy but fun filled Easter weekend- parties, friends, Easter egg hunts, and bunny-filled baskets. But most importantly though my girls are beginning to really understand the true meaning of Easter. He is Risen!

Kyla made a beaded Jesus bracelet at preschool last week and was able to tell me (and everyone else she came into contact with the true meaning of Easter). Wish we had a picture but we already lost the braclet.

Black bead: Sin separates us from God.
Red bead: Jesus shed his blood on the cross to pay for our sins.
White bead: The blood of Christ washes us pure and white as snow.
Green bead: Our faith grows like a plant from a seed.
Gold bead: We will spend eternity in heaven where the streets are made of gold.

Here are a few highlights from the weekend.
