Blessings this Week: 04.10.2015



First and foremost, of course, is the celebration of Easter on Sunday! 
We are so blessed. 

Our Jesus not only died to save us from our sins, but he didn't stay dead! 

He defeated death and rose again. Light overcomes the darkness! Hallelujah!

Date nights with pickup loads (the life of a maintenance man's wife....) 


..   ..   ..   ..   ..


Easter sunrise service

..   ..   ..   ..   ..

Easter horse ride (and beautiful weather for it, too!)



..   ..   ..   ..   ..

A Easter dinner, and of course, the traditional Egg Rolling Contest!




... and we even introduced some new "rollers" to the tradition!


Trevor's three-year winning streak finally ended...

with a win by...


ME!
..   ..   ..   ..   ..

Spending time with our little tender-hearted nephew...

who reassured his grandma, "Don't worry, you can try again next time!" after her egg was cracked.

..   ..   ..   ..   ..

Big, wet snowflakes that melt as they hit the ground


..   ..   ..   ..   ..

We're ending up the week with colds (oh the tissues!), but I'm grateful for hot tea, tissues with lotion, a sympathetic husband, and unnecessary fires in the fireplace just to make me happy.

Here on the little blog this week...

Priorities

I feel like I don't have enough time. I think it's a common feeling, really. I get home from work, get a few things done, and all of the sudden it's 10:00 pm and I should really get ready for bed. How does that happen? I mean, after all, the number of hours in a day hasn't changed.... 


Some days, I get a glimpse... 


What blessings have you seen this week? 

Have a great weekend!

    1. That's one thing we've been so blessed with- lots of family, and so many of them are pretty nearby!
