Happy Easter!

   

     This morning Elizabeth and I were having a converstation about what is the most important holiday.

          
          Elizabeth:  Mom, I think Christmas is really the most important holiday.
          Me:  Hmmmm....... Why do you think that, honey?
          Elizabeth AND Micah:  Mom, Jesus was B...O...R...N!!!!
          Elizabeth:  We couldn't have Easter without Jesus being BORN!!!
          Me:  I see your point BUT I would never have salvation without Easter.
          Elizabeth:  Well, your right about that BUT He still had to be born!

    LOVE that girl :)

     Last night while I was busy getting some last minute things for Easter AND for our trip at Meijer, Matt colored eggs with ALL of the kids.  NO -- I do not think I was missing out ;)  I LOVE looking at the pictures -- and seeing the BEAUTIFUL creations BUT I'm ok that I missed it!  Yet, thrilled they all had fun!

 All six getting ready to decorate!

 Elizabeth concentrating HARD on her creating.

 Hanna decorating --- she is very artistic and enjoys doing this type of stuff!  Although, this was the first time to do Easter eggs!

 Hanna and JM showing off some of their creations.

The girlies :)

     
The Easter Bunny -- YES, we have fun and celebrate this way, too!!! Although, the kids TOTALLY understand WHY we have this holiday!!!  Anyway, the Easter Bunny brought some baskets BUT did not hide them this year :)

     Our church had a special Easter Sunday service.  The music was WONDERFUL!!

AND 

     The true meaning/understanding of Easter was preached.  WOW -- if you would like to experience what we heard please go to the following link and listen http://www.shelbyroad.com/.  

Christ was sent to this earth to live as a man -- He lived a PERFECT life --- was betrayed and crucified on a cross --- THANKFULLY, He arose from the dead on the third day.  He was the perfect sacrifice for my sins AND yours, too.  Don't miss the free gift He offers you.

     AFTER church, we enjoyed finding eggs around the house.  

SOME -- real eggs and some with $$$$.

 BaJabs has ONE real and ONE with money!

 A big $$ egg was found on the hamster cage!

Yes,even in the heat ducts!!

No worries, it was a $$ one ;)

OF COURSE, we enjoyed a few PEEPS!!!  Hanna has NEVER tasted them. 

She actually LIKED them ;)

     We enjoyed a wonderful meal at my mom and dads.  The food was yummy and the company was pretty good, as well :)  We did not stay as long as I would like BECAUSE we needed to get home and finish -- well, start getting packed for vacation as we are pulling out SUPER early!!!

Happy Easter to ALL from the Woller family!
