Fun Easter Weekend!

We had the most fun-filled Easter weekend!  Since Brooke was off for Good Friday, we let the kids stay up late(r) on Thursday evening and they got to play with our neighbor, Dillan, from across the street. The kids had fun riding their bikes, riding the scooter, and playing basketball.

Friday evening, we got all dressed up and ready for the Cross Service at our church.  The service started at 7 and we were there around 6:45 and that's when all the whining started.  The kids were soooo hungry and that was about the time when we eat dinner so we decided to pick up dinner and head back home to watch the service online.  It was a wonderful service and we made the right decision as we were all able to watch and enjoy the true message of Easter. 

Saturday, Chloe and Noah came over and we had an Easter decorating party!  We made and decorated Easter cookies and then decorated over 4 dozen Easter eggs!  The kids had a lot of fun!  Then, that afternoon, Brooke went over to Cassandra's house to play!

Sunday, we went to church for the Easter service. Brooke came with us and Brody went to the Kids area where they had a petting zoo!  He loved it!  The message was awesome!  Our pastor talked about the 39 hours between the time that Christ was crucified on the cross to the time of His ressurection! After church, we went to Jason and Julie's house and Jason cooked an amazing meal!!  He is such a good cook!  Wow!  The kids had an Easter egg hunt and Jason and Julie put money in some of the eggs so the kids really loved that!
