Easter weekend was a lot of fun this year! We attended a Good Friday service at our church, and Judah stayed in the service with us. They showed some footage of Jesus dying on the cross, which was a bit difficult for Judah to see (he specifically said that he did NOT like the soldiers), but it was a great opportunity to talk to him about the reality of Jesus' sacrifice for us. Then, he also sat in the Sunday morning service for Resurrection Sunday. It was really neat to talk about the fact that Jesus won over death and the contrast between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. What a great opportunity to talk about these things with our kids!
Grandma Rowe was also in town this weekend, so we spent Sunday at my parents house with all the grandparents. The kids always think that is so much fun. We even got a visit from my brother, Uncle Abe! It was such a beautiful sunny day. The kids played outside literally all afternoon. As a matter of fact, their faces are a little pink from the sun today! We haven't really done many Easter egg activities in the past and this year was the same, but the kids had a blast playing with bubbles outside (and throwing balls, and running around, and whatever else you can think of). Fun was had by all. :)

| This was Asher's first weekend to actually sit in the grass! |
 |
| We discovered that little boy loves grass. He picked blades of grass and loved to hold them and shake them around. |
 |
| The look on his face is so funny! |
 |
| My dad has this really cool bubble wand. The kids love it! |
