Easter 2015

A run down of our Easter:
Perry and Mills had their Easter bonnet parade at school. We had fun making their hats...Perry's was decorated with eggs, chicks, and a bunny; Mills' was decorated with eggs and army men. Like most school holiday celebrations, it was a little crazy running from one class to the other. Before all the craziness, I was able attend chapel.

Our small group planned a Passover meal. I enjoyed learning a lot about this tradition and why Christians can and should celebrate it. The kids even got to participate.

Easter Sunday was a rainy day, but we went to church and then lunch at my mom's house. It was a really nice time with family and a delicious lunch. The boys were able to hunt for a few eggs on Mae Mae's covered patio. They got Easter baskets at our house before church.
 Poor James didn't have personalized basket this year
My best attempt at an Easter Sunday pic:

This is what it feels like to be the baby brother. James' face says it all...HELP!
Love these little chicks of mine!

James' Baptism

 James was baptized on March 1, 2015. We give glory to God for this sweet child of the covenant!

Chelsey and I planned to have James and Nell baptized on the same day with a joint celebration afterwards. It was such a fun lunch with our families and a couple close friends.
