Easter

It is hard to believe that Easter has already come and gone. Where does the time go. We had a very good Easter, but it was very busy. It started on Thursday when Alyssa's school had an Easter Egg Hunt for their party. On Saturday morning we had our Sunday School party and hunted eggs in the freezing cold. I told Jon that I hoped one Easter of Alyssa's life she could hunt eggs without a coat and hat. After that we went to my parents to eat lunch and hunt eggs yet again in the cold. On Sunday we went to church and then to Jon's parents to hunt eggs. We made the usual family rounds. It was so neat to see Easter through Alyssa's eyes this year. She realized for the first time why we celebrate Easter. She would tell the story that, "the soldiers came to get Jesus and killed him b/c they did not like him. Then they would take him to the cave and leave him there. The next day they went to check on him and he was gone b/c he went to heaven to be with God." It was so sweet to hear her tell the story of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is amazing how innocent it sounds coming from her. I hope you and your families all had a very Happy Easter!!!! He is Risen!!!! Until next time......

What a crazy year!!!!!

Where do I begin. Things have been so crazy for us lately. Jon was moved out of his position at work back in February and will now have a pay cut starting May 1st. We have been contemplating me going back to work, but decided to try and wait it out a year and see how the market goes. We are completely blessed that he still has a job so to God be the glory for that!!!!! I had to have a tooth extracted two weeks ago and am having a hard time recovering. I get tired real easy and my pain causes headaches. I am slowly getting better though. A huge praise for us is the fact that my business is picking up. I absolutely love sewing and working on my machine. I have to be careful or I would do it 24-7. Needless to say we are glad February and March are over and are looking forward to the rest of the year. Happy Easter everyone and remember to thank God for all he has done for us including sacrificing his only son for our sins. He is ALIVE!!! Hallelujah!!!!!!!! Til next time!!!!
