3rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt

On Saturday we enjoyed a fun day with friends at the park as our Life Group gathered for our 3rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt & Picnic. We changed locations this year and the kids really enjoyed the new park.  This is one of our favorite times of year and we always look forward to this!

Fun at the park.....


It's hard to believe that Keegan was only 3 weeks old at last year's picnic.  They have both changed so much! 
We had a really fun day with great friends!  Ava is so ready for another hunt with her cousins after church on Sunday.  Her Nana bought her the sweetest book for her first Easter called 'The Best thing about Easter.'  We read it all year long but we've read it a lot lately and it lists all the fun things about Easter but tells the entire Easter story at the end and emphasizes that without Jesus there would be NO Easter.  So around the house we will stop and ask each other, 'What's the greatest thing about Easter?' And she usually replies JESUS!  But the other day while we were on a walk I asked her and she blurted out 'The tomb was EMPTY!'  Awesome.....Just awesome.  All I could say was Amen! 
Blessings to you this Easter Weekend!
