We REJOICED! as a family.

The month of April is always jam-packed with family celebrations. Uncle Andrew's Birthday comes first, then Marty's, then Zach's, then Aunt Kelly's and finally my own. And right in the midst of all the cake and presents is Easter. This year we continued what has become a tradition over the last few years: a simple, but absolutely joyful celebration of our Savior's resurrection with my parents. (We hope next year our entire family could join us)
Jayden can nearly recite the Biblical account, from Jesus breaking bread with his disciples at the last supper through the miraculous empty tomb-- for which she exclaims "Jesus is alive!". Check out this really fun teaching tool called Resurrection Eggs http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product?item_no=297220&event=ETS
Mima took on the challenge of baking Marty's birthday cake with the help of tiny hands.
Papa brought up Jayden's new favorite book about a little mouse named Marty.
Sunday morning we worshiped together with our awesome church, which meets at the Junior college just a mile from our house.
Mima brought up the egg-hunting supplies and the kids had a blast discovering them in the backyard and in their rooms.
