Easter Weekend

Abigail Morgan and Bethany had fun filling their baskets at the church's Hallalujah Egg Hunt.
As you can see from Bethany's bucket there were a ton of eggs for all the kids.
Our church traditionally tells the Easter story to the children after the egg hunt. They use the plastic eggs with Easter symbols to help tell the children. They aren't supposed to be eating candy at this point, but if you look at Bethany you will notice her hand hovering in her basket, ready to get the next piece! Once they got to the part of the Lord's Supper they gave the kids juice boxes and a piece of bread to allow them to participate. I thought that was a great way to teach younger children about communion.
My brother Rob, his wife and children traveled from Houston to join us for Easter this year. So on Saturday all the kids dyed eggs. Here is Rob, Jake, Wendi, Bethany, Katie & Drew.
Bethany really liked making PINK eggs, I think when we were done over half of the eggs were pink or purple.
