We have been more than blessed with our friendship with the Testones. And on a holiday weekend when we are not able to be with our own families, it is such a blessing to have friends like family to share special times with. We got together today for lunch and a little egg hunt for the kids. One day, ALL of our children will be smiling and looking at the camera. I have hope.
Hudson, Jack, Kate and Ellie
Jack and Hudson looking hard. Dusty and Steven decided the three big kids should have to work for their eggs! Ha!
Ellie is really into purses, bags, etc. So she put her basket on her arm and said "Bye, Bye!"
Notice it's empty. She was too busy for eggs!
Later at home, coloring eggs. He loved it!
It is so neat to watch our kids experience new things, get excited about the "fun" parts of Easter and share special times with friends...but so much more than that, we want them to understand the real meaning of why we celebrate. Our prayer as parents is that our kids will one day choose to follow Christ and know for themselves His love and sacrifice!
