Belated Easter Post ...Lots of Pictures :)

My cord came today and I am happy to be back on my laptop.  I have been absent from Facebook and the blog unless I was babysitting at my sister's house at which I used her computer.  Anyway, I will post some pictures of Easter week and I have to praise God for blessing us with a beautiful Easter weekend. 

I woke up early Easter morning and watched the sunrise.  It was kind of cool that morning and the birds were singing their hearts out.  It is such a simple pleasure to drink coffee on my front porch and watch the sunrise each morning.

It was so hot that I decided to forego the traditional Easter meal of ham etc.. and we grilled out hamburgers and hotdogs.  I made baked beans and cheesy potatoes and a banana pudding and a strawberry shortcake dessert.  Both were equally delicious and we all had a little of each. My parents came over and ate with us.

Georgia and I spent the rest of the day (until the sunset) sitting outside after my parents left and we enjoyed the gorgeous weather.  It was a perfect day.

Church was awesome! Our church was packed full. My sister and her hubby came with their son and grandson. 

Okay, on to the pictures

 We colored eggs

I decided to wear a skirt but the rest was part of my pantsuit. :)
This is our sanctuary. We have one of the prettiest sanctuaries. When we sing and worship God my eyes are always drawn to that cross and stained glass behind the baptistry.
I got a picture of my brother playing bass through the crowd.
Our pastor.  He preached a powerful sermon!

Some of my church peeps.
Nicholae("Spud") and my brother-in-law and sister. :) He was getting ready to hunt eggs after church. We had a lot of children and they were divided up by their ages.
Look at 'Spud' listening to the instructions. I thought this was so sweet.
Dad helping son to get an egg.
He was proud that he found a prize egg.
Abigail (one of the pastor's daughters and all 3 of them are like my own and thier mom and I have been friends for a long time. In fact, Cecelia was pregnant with Abbers when we first started going to this church. It makes me feel old.
This is our neighborhood. Isn't this beautiful?
This is across the street. It bloomed overnight. I couldn't believe it but just in time for Easter morning.
Color and blooms everywhere. I really love this neighborhood.
I took this the other morning. I can't believe how beautiful the moon was as the sun was just coming up..
One more time with this tree. lol    Praise our Creator!

I think I have posted enough pictures. ;)
