I love celebrating the holiday that our Lord Jesus Christ rose from the grave! It such an awesome day, and an amazing reason to celebrate! That is why i feel a tad bit guilty about the sadness of this day for me! I got to spend the weekend with my WONDERFUL family, and it painfully reminded me of how I DO NOT get to see them enough! Living in the "big town" has forced me to see them less frequently than Im used to, and not nearly enough as I'd like! It was the first Easter we have EVER hunted egss in the rain! The kids were wearing their raincoats, and rainboots, and although there were a TON of eggs in the yard they were VERY skeptical of running out into the pouring rain to get them! I cracked up all day at my little Brookie. She, being the kind hearted sweetie she is, WOULD NOT eat the boiled eggs we dyed. She kept them under a pillow so they would hatch. She was convinced she would have a basketful of chicks in a matter of days!
