Easter

We had a wonderful Easter this year. Holidays are often the time when we miss family the most so we were thankful that some of church family could come and celebrate the day with us. Our church service was great and full of special music. We ate lunch with the Cains and Franklins and then had an indoor Easter Egg hunt due to the pouring rain. We are most thankful for the Lord and His willingness to suffer and die for our sins and we rejoice in his power over death. He is Risen!
Our girls our growing into young ladies.
Friends make holidays fun!!
I love this picture because the girls thought they were done. Notice the egg on picture behind them.

Spring Fun

It has been so long since I have written it is hard to know how to catch up. We are enjoying spring soccer and the girls are doing very well. Tim and I went on the Spring Retreat with the youth to New Life Ranch. This was the first time at this facility and it was great. We planned the retreat on the weekend of Spring Break and ended up with about 3 inches of snow. This changed the activities that we had planned but we all had fun anyway. The speaker was tremendous and fed the youth as well as the adults from God's word. We are so blessed with a youth staff that are selfless servants of Christ. We are thankful and blessed for the opportunity to be involved with this ministry.  
The girls and Tim were up early to welcome me as I finished my 1000th mile with Nike+. 

The girls have great fun selling lemonade to all our neighbors.
