Easter in Wisconsin. A little sad to not be with our families, but thankful for our little family of four. We went to the 9:30 service at Door Creek. Zane loves Sunday School. I asked him what he learned today. "Jesus died." And then what happened? "He colored this picture." The attention span of a three year old! Ha! We talked last night about Easter, and what it means. Oh man, you wouldn't believe the questions that followed! Just a few: "Why those bad guys killed Jesus? They kill his mama and dada, too? Where those bad guys live? Jesus was SO mad at them? What was in that cave?" I think the Easter story is a little deep for this little guy, but we're planting the seeds.
Hollin went into church with Matt and I. She was pretty darn perfect. I wish I had a picture of her from the last 15 minutes of the service when she was snuggled up on her daddy's shoulder.
Matt worked yesterday and last night, so we decided that the easiest way to do lunch was to let Cracker Barrel do the cooking! Yummy and reminds us of the south. The first time either of us has ever eaten in a restaurant on a major holiday. Our neighbors are so sweet and have invited us to eat Easter dinner with them. Looking forward to good food and good friends. Zane loves their little girl, Siela. They will have fun hunting eggs together. I'll do another post of them from yesteray hunting eggs together. I'll also get pictures of the Easter baskets after Z & H wake up from naps. For now, more pictures from this morning.
The cute babies
The boys
The girls
The ones you usually don't see...
Happy Easter!
It's been years since we did Easter with the families...it was too hard to split. I do miss them terribly, but we always enjoy celebrating the risen Christ as our family of four:) As for Cracker Barrel, we ordered and brought it home for Thanksgiving and though I feel like a heel for not cooking, it was DELICIOUS! Happy Easter!
