Easter

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the single most pivotal event of the Christian faith. If Christ didn't raise to life after dying for us on the cross, our faith is worth nothing. So many times we put so much emphasis on Christmas, and no doubt the birth of our Savior is monumental. Yet, without the resurrection we have no hope. Easter is definitely a special day to celebrate that Christ conquered death and waits for us in Heaven!

We started the day at the sunrise service at the beach. There is something about walking up to a public place and seeing believers gathered from all over (many churches in the area) worshiping their God will their whole heart as the sun rises over the ocean. It's wonderful and a bit heaven-like (though much too cold for heaven!!) Ha ha!

We had an awesome day celebrating what Christ did for us at John and Anita's house. They always remind everyone what the day is about and why we come together. Kate already has been told that the Easter bunny doesn't exist, and actually, she didn't seem very shocked. Hee Hee

We had food fit for a king and stuffed ourselves silly with candy...

Kate smelled some flowers and hunted for eggs...

This looks like a pose, but she doesn't quite know how to do this yet, it's actually just an accidental turn and snap!!

This is the greatest Easter I think I've ever had, watching Kate find eggs hidden in the back yard, and yes, I actually gave her the candy inside...she was my best friend after this experience!

More pics to come soon on our other picture website (the bulk goes there).

Happy Easter everyone, and if you don't know Christ as your Savior...you should seriously look into giving your life to Him. The need is there, the need is there, and life will never be the same!

Be Blessed!
