Easter 2011

We love celebrating Easter! It is one of our favorite times of the year. This year, Sunday morning came early with a Sunrise Service held at our church at 6:30am. I led our teens and children in an Easter puppet skit. I was so proud of all of them. They all got up and came to the 6:30am service! That included Lexie and Leah. They were part of the puppet skit and loved it.
After the Sunrise service, we stayed at the church with our church family and had a wonderful Easter breakfast. Later in the morning, we went to Sunday School and then our Easter Worship service. The whole morning was anointed with God's presence.
We then came home to have our own special Easter celebration with our family. Every Sunday when the girls get home from church, believe it or not, but while I'm fixing lunch, they love to watch "The Lawrence-Welk Show." Special re-runs come on PBS on Sunday afternoons. And the girls absolutely love it! On Easter, they were doing a special Easter re-run. They had this big bunny playing an Easter decorated piano. And the girls HAD to take a picture of it! That's what you see below.....




This is part of our special Easter dinner. I made some homemade braided bread and an Easter bonnet that has become an Easter tradition at our "girly" home.






I tried and tried to get a "perfect" pic of the girls ALL looking and ALL smiling. This was the best I could do, even with Lexie and Leah's head chopped off. My bad!




And here we are having our Easter dinner.

HE IS RISEN !!!! HE IS RISEN, INDEED !!!!!
