The Beyl Blog: Easter Weekend Fun!

What a busy weekend it was with all of our Easter festivities. On Friday night, our church was having a special worship service to depict the resurrection of Jesus. What a way to kick off the weekend, by reminding ourselves that Jesus Christ died for our sins and we are forgiven and here today because of Him. It just opened my eyes even more to all the many blessings in my life. To live every day for God and don't fret about the minor problems, because there is nothing God cannot handle.

On Saturday morning, we got up early and got ready for a neighborhood Easter egg hunt. Ava loved to pick up the eggs but never wanted to put them in her basket. I followed her around the entire yard, she just loved being outside and being able to run free. Later that day, we went and had a photo shoot with the Easter bunny. This, by far, was the highlight of the day! Ava laughed and giggled, flailed her arms back and forth, and wanted to grab the Easter bunny's nose and ears. She had no interest in sitting in his lap, but she sure did love to stare and poke at him.

On Sunday, we went to the church and then ate with Jerry, Dianna, Alyssa, and Amanda. After lunch, we all took long naps and grilled out later that night. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend!
