Easter Weekend

I hope you all had a fantastic Easter celebrating Jesus' resurrection!  It is pretty amazing to know that He has overcome death just for us!!

We drove to my parents' house on Saturday evening and then got up and went to church with them.  Their church choir did a great Easter medley and we heard a good sermon.  It was a nice way to start the day!

 After church we headed home and started getting lunch ready.  My two aunts, an uncle and my cousin all came out to celebrate with us.

For lunch, my mom made ham, potato casserole, green beans, corn and rolls. My aunt brought a salad and I made dessert. I opted for two Spring inspired pies -- Fresh Strawberry Pie and Layered Lemon Pie (I modified this recipe by using a graham cracker crust and purchasing the lemon curd). They were both YUMMY!

We had a pretty low key day -- the guys watched The Masters and us girls spent the day visiting.  There was one incident where my mom was throwing a ball for Koby and clocked one of my aunts right in the head!!  We all had a pretty good laugh :)  I fully intended on taking a lot of pictures but we got so busy talking that I completely forgot!

I'm thankful that we can celebrate Easter and have everlasting hope for the future!
