Easter

We ended up with an Easter quite different from the one we imagined. Addie came down with pink eye and a terrible cough on Thursday, and I came down with the cough and body aches on Saturday. But we were soooo determined to go to church to celebrate Resurrection Day! So Addie got eye drops to keep her from being infectious, and we all got dressed up and went to service- but just for worship. The kids couldn't go in Nursery or Sunday School and we were all too worn out to make it all the way through the service, but at least we got to go a little!
And we got a nice family picture anyway!

We couldn't go to our friends home for a nice Easter dinner, but while we were at home resting that afternoon, we got to feel the earth move under our feet- actually, it was the couch roll under our bum. We felt the 7.2 earthquake in Mexico all the way up here! We watched the chandelier sway for awhile and then all returned to normal.

Greg came down with the crud that afternoon, just about the time I started feeling a little perkier. God is so good that He would allow only one of us to be laid out at a time!
We opened some Easter gifts from Greg's parents on Saturday. Scotty loved playing with the eggs....
and Addie loves her new art supplies!


Scotty also worked on moving around the red chair. Both our kids have learned to stand holding onto the big red ottoman, and then started working their way around the chair. Such a fun stage!
