Easter 2011
Quick visit from the Easter Bunny, Sunday school and church, then off to Grenada for lunch and an Easter Egg hunt. Busy day but so fun for the kids. Neil wasn't that into Easter egg hunting but it was right around his nap time and he doesn't enjoy being outside nearly as much as Camden right now. We followed the Sheffield tradition of the Easter bunny leaving the kids goodies outside the doors of their rooms. I felt bad that we didn't get them any candy until after the hunt but we came home with enough candy to last a year!
Neil's Basket
Excuse our morning hair and 2 unmatching bows that she just had to wear :)
My Little Monkey Man
She is probably wishing I would put the camera up.
Neil and Pop Pop
He was more interested in the paper than the eggs

Palm Sunday
Below are some pictures I took before church on Palm Sunday. Played around a little with them in Photoshop, which is my new technological addiction.

Pre-Easter Egg Decorating
This was Camden's first year to dye Easter eggs and it was so much fun! She had a blast and after they dried she and Neil ate one each! (Notice we are still in our pajamas just incase it got messy.)
She was so gentle and never even cracked one!
This is a photo of what the kids godmother sent them for Easter and for Neil's birthday.
She hand stitched and then framed the duck in the back and sent him a silver spoon
to add to his collection. She sent them each a furry Easter basket with lots of eggs
and even sent me some really cute Easter kitchen towels! We are so blessed to have
Alice Virginia as a part of our life, I just wish she lived closer so we could see her more!

Gramps
On Friday, April 22, 2011 my grandfather went home to Jesus. He is also with my father and my other grandparents. I know they had a wonderful reunion and we will once again be together never to be seperated again. Our family has experienced a lot of death and it is comforting to know this is not the end and that our family will once again be reunited.
At the dress rehearsal for my wedding.
Gramps and Granny
Two verses and a song have been in my heart a lot lately.
When I was younger I listened to Audio Adrenaline and they have an awesome song that I think of at times of losing a loved one. I want this song sung at my funeral.....below is a link.
Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
1 Corinthians 15:50-57
50 I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”[a]
55 “Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”[b]
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
