Preparing For Easter - Part 3


All the house is aflutter with excitement!

The blueberry branches are blooming!





Pretty pink buds shaped like fairy bells greet us wherever we look. 








And our lovely painted eggs look right at home in these spring branches...

Wait...is that a TARDIS I spy? 

Quinn...?



It looks like Quinn has been up to some mischief, but we've been up to even more mischief together! 

Not long ago during a trip to the store we happened upon something quite exciting: confetti eggs!


Yes, these brightly colored eggs may look normal, but I assure you they aren't! Inside each cute little egg is a bunch of confetti and the goal is to crack them on someone's head!

Which is just what we did...



But before cracking them on each other's heads on the trampoline, Quinn and I hatched (haha! Get it?) a different plan.

We had everyone line up as if we were going to take a picture of them (we had a camera and everything) then when they were least expecting it we cracked eggs on their heads!


Everyone thought it was hilarious (mom had confetti in her hair for the rest of the day). However, we don't suggest you do this unless you have a very good vacuum cleaner on hand, for obvious reasons.



Don't worry though, they got their revenge on us!

---------------------------------------------------------------

We realize it's a bit early, but we wanted to wish all of you a Happy Easter! 

He is risen, yes He has risen again!



 "He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you, while He was still with you in Galilee: 

'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' "
Luke 24:6-7

May you feel the same joy and victory we do in the knowledge that Jesus our Savior has risen from the dead and that soon, one day, He will return! Amen!

  1. The egg with the cross is beautiful. Isn't it wonderful that we can see He is no longer in the tomb, but risen, just as He said? What a lovely reminder of the price Jesus paid for us and the promise of our home in Heaven if we will just trust Him to be our Savior. Thank you for sharing.
