Some Easter Fun








We had a blessed Easter this past weekend! My sister and her family were able to come and stay a couple days with us. Ellie was thrilled to have her best friend, Lilah, here to share in all the festivities. Friday and Saturday we had a successful garage sale...and are happy to be able to get both cars in the garage now after eliminating some things.

On Saturday, we took the kids to a carnival and egg hunt here in town. We are very lucky to have a community that does things like that and makes it a great opportunity to meet new people. The kids had a blast! Nicki and I were tired. But we still managed to get the eggs dyed before supper.

Easter morning, after finding eggs and baskets that the Easter Bunny brought, we all went to church at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines with Lutheran Church of Hope. Lots of great things about spending Easter morning with over 12,000 other worshippers...but also kinda hectic too! We enjoyed the service, but we hope our little satellite of Hope, Northbranch, will have it's own service next year in Ankeny.

We hope your family had a blessed Easter weekend! Jesus has Risen! Alleluia!
