Easter Sunday 2008

We had such a nice time today at church. Joshua had his first performance in front of the whole congregation, with his Sunday School class. I was so proud of my baby! They sung "Mary had a little Lamb" but an Easter version of it. They all wore fuzzy bunny ears on their heads - so cute!




We tried to get some pictures of us dressed up when we got home from church, but the kids were pretty cranky.




Joshua and grandma went outside to play after his nap. Isn't this a cute picture of them getting ready to kiss. Adorable!


Check out the Easter basket they made with sidewalk chalk

Good Friday 2008

We were so blessed this year with unexpected Easter baskets for the kids. It was like Christmas with all the great stuff inside. (more toys than candy - thank God) LOL
I am just so grateful for how God always takes care of us.





The following pictures are us dyeing Easter eggs on Good Friday. It is always a real challenge and very messy. Thank God my mom was here to help. We boiled 36 eggs. They will probably go bad before we can eat them all. LOL
It was like a marathon - the kids would drop one egg in to a dye cup, take it out in about 2 seconds and then ask for another egg. We couldn't slow them down. It only took us about 15 minutes to dye all the eggs and finish them off with some stickers. Of course, a few were cracked in the process, but those were the ones Cliff got to eat while he was video taping.



Grandma was having a blast! Don't you just love her hair? We are both trying to let our hair grow. Let's see who can last the longest.


This is Cliff's usual spot behind the video camera.






Everyone was so excited when the eggs were done. Here they are showing them off.

Unexpected News


Here are my babies posing for me so they can get a lollipop. They often ask me to take their picture because they know there is something in it for them. LOL


Here we are getting ready to leave for church. Little did I know that in a few hours I would find out something HUGE!


Well, here it is. We got home from church and I found out I was pregnant with baby #3!!
