Easter Activities

We had a wonderful day celebrating Resurrection Sunday. We had an early morning Sunrise service on the river (although it was more of a Sunshine service since it was later) with breakfast, singing and a short challenge from Adam.

Then we all went to church for our usual morning service. It was a special Easter since it was our first Easter celebration as a church and with Adam being the pastor. Adam taught from I Cor. 15: 20-28. Two years ago, Adam and I were up here on Easter Sunday night and Adam taught for their Bible Study from I Cor. 15:12-18 - what if the Resurrection did not happen. This Sunday was two truths that extend from a resurrected Savior: 1) The resurrection secures imputed life vv. 20-22 2) The resurrection secures victorious life vv. 23-28. It was an encouraging time being in the Word together.

We were at some friends house for the afternoon. It was a very relaxing time - we had an Easter egg hunt (I think one of the first that Adam and I had participated in, at least that we could remember) and the one egg that we found together was a gift card to the Cheesecake Factory - pretty nice huh? We let the kids have all the candy filled eggs, we only looked for the gold or silver eggs. We then came back to the house and relaxed the rest of the night. It was a good day!

Here are some pictures from the day -

The one of Karissa with us in the morning was at the river - this picture is somewhat sentimental because it's first of all her first Easter, then the sweater she was wearing was mine as a baby. It was funny because the teenagers that it was so COOL because it was in style, they asked were I got it and when I told them it was mine as a baby - they actually said that it was even cooler because it's VINTAGE - talk about making me feel old!!! Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures.
