Just yesterday Myah our youngest said to me, "Mommy I don't want Jesus to die". The good news is today we celebrate that He is no longer dead, He has risen! Here are a couple of pictures of the girls all dressed up in their pretty Easter dresses. Thank you to my mother-in-law for getting the dresses for the girls! They look so pretty! I hope that you all have a blessed Easter celebrating the Risen Savior!

The girls have been asking me all week, when do we get to paint our eggs . So last night while Jeremy was gone to church for a meeting we decided we would paint our eggs. The girls always have so much fun doing this. They get so creative with their painting. At first it was just dip the egg in one color and then be done, but by the end they were dipping the top part of the egg in one color and the bottom half in a different color. Then they started dipping their eggs in all the different colors. While painting our eggs we were able to talk about how eggs represent new life. Easter is all about new life because of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the cross we have new life in Him. I'm so thankful the story doesn't end with Jesus dying on the cross, 3 days later He rose again. Another fun thing we like to do with our girls at Easter are the Resurrection Eggs .

Last week, Makayla's school had Grandparents Day. We were very thankful that it worked out that Grammy and Grandpa were able to come out for the day. Makayla was glad to have them there with her at school! Each class did a little program for the grandparents in the gym. Here are a few pictures from Grandparents Day. Here is Makayla with her teacher. Here the girls are looking through their American Girl Doll catalog. They usually do this about once or twice a day. They have been saving their money for some time now, and can hardly wait to go and buy one!

This summer the youth will be going on a Missions Trip to Honduras. Since Jeremy likes to take an advance trip before entering new territory with 30 plus teenagers, he headed out this morning for Honduras. He left at 4am to head to the airport to catch a plane to Atlanta and then there he will board another plane and head over to Honduras. Once they get in Honduras they will board one more plane which will take them to their final destination. It will be a long day of traveling, so you can keep them in your prayers! He is hoping to be able to blog a little bit and post some pictures while he is there. You can follow that by clicking here at Go Deep Blog .
