Happy Easter!

Happy Easter...a few days late! We pray that you had a beautiful and blessed day celebrating the resurrection of our Lord & Savior! We had a wonderful service at church that morning. We were very sad that Nathan's throat was still hurting, so he was unable to preach, but are thankful the associate minister stepped in and delivered a wonderful message. Nathan is feeling much, much better this week, and even though he is still experiencing some soreness, he should be able to preach this Sunday.

But guess what? The Easter Bunny visited our home Sunday morning and left our sweet, baby son a fun Easter basket full of wonderful goodies! He gave Jackson a "real" cell phone, and his own set of car keys, complete with a remote! The cell phone has especially been a big hit.

Oh, and our little guy looked quite handsome Sunday morning in his spiffy little outfit which included a bow tie! For those of you who have known my family for a while, you might recognize this outfit as being the same one cousin Levi wore in his one-year picture. (He is now nine years old!) Thank you, Aunt Joanie, for hanging on to such a precious little outfit!
