Super Sunday

Cotton Candy always make any weekend brighter. Someone at the Administration Building know how to score big points with Tyler and Georgia Kate. I think it safe to say that our kids have the hearts of everyone in the district. 

Easter Weekend

Over the Easter weekend we decided to head back to Temple. It was a fast trip, but so worth it. Tyler had school on Good Friday, bad weather make-up day. Thank goodness we have now made up both our bad weather days. It had been a while since we had been back, and with a crazy few weeks and weekends ahead we felt it was the best time go. We had a blast seeing Ghee and Poppy, and some of our friends. We also go to go back to our church, and boy did it feel wonderful to worship there on Easter Sunday. My heart will always belong to that Church.

We of course made stops at all of our favorite places in Temple that have all held so many memories for our family. We also did a little family bowling. We had a blast! I think we have found a new family favorite with Ghee and Poppy. 

Temple will always be Home to me, but I think it is getting to easier to leave. This was the first time that I did not cry when pulling out of the City limits. It is a huge relief to be adjusted and feeling better and better about our new home and the roots that we are working on planting here.

Special Night

It is always a special night at the Baseball Field when your Teacher comes to cheer you on! We are so very thankful for Tyler's amazing Teacher who made his night! Tyler was so very proud that she was there watching him, that he played his best game of the Season. Way to go Thunder!!
Tonight was just another wonderful reminder of how very thankful we are to be apart of such a wonderful District, and for a Teacher that goes above and beyond to make Tyler feel so very special!

Joy

Georgia Kate turned 2 1/2 yesterday! The months are flying by and with every month Georgia Kate is learning and exploring new things. We are having so much fun spending our days together, and I am truly cherishing every moment with her.

Hunting For Jelly Beans

Thanks to a fun Homework assignment for Tyler on Easter, Tyler and Georgia Kate got to hunt for Jelly Beans yesterday afternoon. After the hunt we worked on sorting and counting our jelly beans....Who knew Easter could be fun and Educational! We had a fun day outside having fun with jelly beans and math, and maybe eating a few of the jelly beans after our work was done. So thankful for Easter and Spring.

Happy Easter

We hope that you had a wonderful day Celebrating Easter. Because He lives. We have HOPE!

Good Friday

Are you ready? The good news is, it's Friday, but....... Sunday's Coming! Yes, Sunday, glorious Sunday, for all those who trust in the Lord. The Fridays of life will come but if we trust, Sunday will surely follow.

This promise of life returning to us means that Sunday is coming and that we are in the Season of Spring and Easter. The precious and humbling reminder of new beginnings.  However, today my heart is reminded that we can live the resurrection story at any time in our lives. We are constantly dying little deaths; in our relationships, our ...grief, and our personal journey carrying our own cross. But there is always the HOPE of our resurrection, and this can only come through knowing our Savior, Jesus Christ. He is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6)


On this Good Friday, I am praising God for the reminder of the promise that He can make all things new. He will turn ashes into absolute beauty. But just as today symbolizes, we must sometimes wait. But, He cares about our loss, and He can bring his Resurrection power in to your aching heart and life. God is so Good.
May your heart be filled with overcoming peace this Easter weekend as you cling to the Hope that comes from the Resurrection.
