Good Monday morning! I mean that sincerely–it is a GOOD MONDAY MORNING! Lydia is off on a two day adventure with my brother and sister-in-law and my niece, Nora. The weather here is absolutely insanely beautiful. Asa and I played outside today, we went to Harry’s and later on, Staci and I will be shopping for a big Once-a-month-cooking tomorrow!
Oh, did I mention I’m wearing SHORTS and SANDALS?
Easter (aka Resurrection Sunday) was very nice. I taught the lesson at church for all of our 4 year olds at church. That might not sound like a big deal but it was—that’s seven classrooms and about 100-150 kids! I don’t teach regularly because I’m a “coach” and I am in charge of the volunteers of three different classrooms. So, to get to tell the most important story of all to the kids was really fun.
After church we went to the park with my family. We ate fried chicken, a yummy bean salad, fruit and yes, chocolate rice krispies treats. (I’m ruined!) Asa was not too happy to be awoken from his nap to play out in the hot sun. It took him a good hour and a half to work up the courage to go down the slide. This is how he looked most of the day:
Later we went to my husband’s parents’ house. The kids played and played with their cousins. And we at ham, potato salad and banana pudding. Leaving no doubt that we do indeed live in the South.
So, how was your Easter? If you blogged about your day, leave a link in the comments! I’d love to see!
And check out one other cool thing Lydia and I did to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection at Impress Your Kids!

I blogged about the day before the day. I had so much on my plate and getting it all down in a post helped. Mainly it was a post about the Children’s Church lesson I had planned. http://www.pjs-til-noon.com/2010/04/enough.html

Sounds like a fun and busy day! I’m glad Asa was feeling better. My family went to a sunrise service on the beach. Check my blog for a sunrise beach photo! 😉

Looks so fun! I’m glad you got to teach ALL the kids. You have such a gift.

Amazing.
Love you guys!
