Easter 2017

May 1, 2017

Mark 16:5-7

As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, they were alarmed.  "Don't be alarmed" he said.  "You are looking for Jesus of Nazarene who was crucified.  He is risen! He is not here.  See the place where they laid him.  But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you into Galilee.  There you will see him, just as he told you'.

Praise God for when his son Jesus gave his life on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins it was the saddest day in history.  But we are grateful that only three short days later came the greatest day in our history, with the resurrection of Jesus Christ who with his  Resurrection gave us a new hope, life and promise!

I think Easter is one of my most favorite days of the year.  Mainly because I see the church filled with people, everyone in their beautiful new Easter clothes, and families together celebrating, children joyful in all their innocence.  Most days our news feeds are filled with tragedy and heartache, but on this day my mind and eyes are filled with the Lords glory.  With peace, joy, love, family and fun!  I am so happy to celebrate Easter with my babies and to be in good health and filled with the Lords blessings in every area of our lives....God is good all the time and all the time God is good!!

As soon as the girls woke up...they opened their Easter baskets...



Makaila even had her own special surprise gift for her little sister.  She spent her own money to get her this fun frisbie and made her a basket of things.....they really love each other...despite the bickering!

We headed out to church looking pretty....and had to send people to the overflow tent before service even started....Love to see the church doors filled like that!!  Makes my heart happy! We took some cute pictures when we got home, then proceeded to load up everything into the car...we were jammed pack...we had food, burners, baskets, candy, aguas frescas, more candy, cupcakes, rice krispies, watermelon, there was barely room for any of us! LOL






 We got to Ernie and Sarah's and the festivities began...Danny got to cooking...


 The kids took hundreds of selfies and pictures...



 Teresea sent Easter baskets for both of the girls, and Ceci had goody bags made up for them too....so they went inside to open their goodies while daddy made some discada!





 Ava opened her Easter goodies from Tia Ceci too...



 We went outside to hang out and take more pictures of course!! 


Makaila came inside to open her basket too...




 Me and Ray became bunnies!!






 Then Tio Ernie heated up the pool and the pool side shenanigan's began!






 Once we had all eaten, and rested our bellies, we went out to do the Easter Egg hunt in the backyard...We of course had to take pictures of Addison's First Easter with us.....so cute!!





 Your Mark, Get Set, Go...




 It takes us longer to hide them/  put them all out then it does for them to gather them all....
 Addison got in on some pool action too..
 We spent the rest of our day eating, talking crap, laughing and eating again! 



Then it got to be clean up time.....


It was a fantastic day.  We ate to our hearts content, no troubles, beautiful weather and the glory of our Lord and Savior!  It was a good Easter, and I am so grateful for every person.  Thankful that they love my kids, that they spend their time with us, that we are all in good health and that Jesus is in each of our lives!! Have a great week!
