We had a fun Easter weekend. It started out with a trip for Taylor (and her youth group) to Oklahoma City for a night of laser tag on Friday. They had the entire place rented out from 11 pm-5 am! She had a blast. While she was there, I spent the evening at a scrapbooking party. It was my first time to scrapbook (even though I've wanted to do it for many years now), and after being there for 6 hrs, I only completed 1 page! On Sat I took Joslyn to a kid's craft party where she made a picture frame. She had a great time. After naps that day, the kids got to open some Easter goodies from family, and then we made cookies together (Joslyn's been begging to make something with dough like Barney does on one of his movies) :) Today, we had a great sermon at church. After talking about Easter this week at home and at church, when I asked Joslyn this morning to tell Ben about Easter she said, "it's when the Easter Bunny brings us candy and also when Jesus died on the cross and then went to heaven to take our sins with him" :) It turned out to be a rainy day (only the second time it's rained the whole time we've been here), which caused the church Easter egg hunt to get canceled, so Taylor and I hid eggs while the girls napped after church, and then we had our own hunt. Riley really enjoyed it and ended up with more eggs than Joslyn. Tonight we will have our family dinner together. We typically spend the day at GG's house, so I decided to fix all the same foods that we typically have there, plus a few extras! We miss you all and hope you have a wonderful Easter! 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 "..that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.."
