Easter

Yesterday was wonderful Easter Sunday. It was sunny and beautiful. We enjoyed church, with a full house, 2 services, brunch and sunday school. Gatta love all of that! :) Visiting with church family has been wonderful! I really miss them when I don't see them. And of coarse, the amazing good news that Jesus Christ, my Lord rose again, and conquered death! :) This news that changed history forever has changed me forever. I am so grateful that I have Jesus in my life and in my heart. I sang the song "Because of Love" by Natalie Grant in church yesterday, and the words just touch my heart so much. Here are some of them...


He gave unselfishly
Caused my blinded to eyes to see
It was you and me he had in mind
On the road to Calvary
I never known such a perfect love
I had fallen down but he picked me up
He rescued my soul
Now I want the world to know

Isabella Joy looked just adorable yesterday. She had this beautiful pink outfit on. Here's a picture of us in the car, but all you can see is her hat. But you get the picture...literally...



Yesterday was also a special day for my family because it was Sophia Catherine DuFrane's memorial. She passed away 5 years ago yesterday, so the whole day was very bittersweet. We went to visit her burial spot and prayed together as a family. We do miss her, but we take joy in the fact that she is dancing with Jesus! No more pain or suffering. We love you precious girl. RIP my baby sister.

For dinner yesterday, we drove over to my Auntie M and Uncle Jim's house and had yummy lasagna. ALSO, for desert, I had ICE CREAM! (First time in 6 weeks, so it's exciting) It was delicious, even though I ate way too much! :/

My uncle also gave me a copy of The Blind Side- which is an INCREDIBLE movie and if you are reading this you need to go watch it. I'm so excited to watch it, porbs later with my Mommy!

So I wherever this blog finds you, I hope that you enjoying your day. I know I am. It's about 60 degrees and sunny here, so that means Emmi is headed outside! Count your blessings, and enjoy the little things.

God bless!
