Easter

We had a really nice Easter day. Joe had to be at the church at 6:45 am, so we waited to give the girls their Easter baskets until later. I decided to hide their eggs around the living room so they could have some fun when they woke up. After that we had breakfast and then got ready for church. For those of you that know me, know I really like to dress the girls in matching outfits. I know this is going to be a difficult task with three now, but I found matching dresses for Joleigh and Noelle and found a coordinating color dress for Jaelyn. They looked adorable! The church service was incredible!!! Everyone involved in planning did such a great job and it paid off tremendously. The church was packed for the entire weekend. Overall, more than 23,000 people were in attendance. Isn't that amazing!?! God was truly glorified in the service, start to finish.
After church we went to Joe's dad's house for lunch. The girls enjoyed their Easter baskets filled with toys and candy and we were able to rest and relax, which was especially good for Joe who had been working so much in the past week to prepare for the Easter service.
We then went over to Joe's brothers' house to have dinner with their mom. She had more Easter gifts for the girls, which they loved! We played outside in the beautiful weather and had an official egg hunt. It was a really nice day with all of Joe's family.
Then on Monday night we celebrated with my family at my parent's house. We had dinner, hunted eggs and just caught up with everyone. It was a wonderful time!
Overall, it was a terrific holiday! We were able to enjoy all of God's amazing blessings, but most importantly remember our Lord and Savior, the sacrifice He made and HIs resurrection. What a Happy Easter!!!
