Easter

I absolutely love Easter... and having children makes the day even more special. Mae really knows why we celebrate this day. She has such a sweet way of telling the story of how much God loves us all. She is full of questions about sin, angels and the holy spirit. It is amazing to watch her come to understand all these concepts and challenging to explain them to a five year old!

 

They love getting their basket and this year I specifically tried to eliminate the little items that get lost under the couch and get them Christian books, a devotional book for Mae and a Boz DVD (if you don't know about Boz, he is phenomenal!! LOOK IT UP)

 We had a picnic and then an Easter egg hunt.

Mae pointed out all the eggs to Ian and Jovie instead of rushing around to get them for herself. She is such an awesome big sister.

 Their eggs were filled with yummy jelly beans.

 This may be my favorite picture of them.

I love these three little ones with all of my heart!

Nanny's 80th

My Nanny had a very special birthday surprise. The whole family got together to celebrate this incredible person that we all love so much! She truly is 80 & FABULOUS!!

 

I love this picture—my Nanny is so beautiful!!

All the cousins.

  My Nanny is deeply loved by my children and I am so fortunate that she is a part of their lives. 

It was such a fun time with all these people that I love so dearly! We have the greatest family (:

Three little chickens are off to Nonna & Boppy's house.  Whatever shall I do without the kids for the night? (;
