No, we are not pagans

Yes, my kids got forced into a picture with the Easter bunny at the library.

Yes, we did go to an egg hunt and enjoyed the candy. (Scott had a couple of pieces and the rest of the chocolate was put away for later. I sure hope he has forgotten about it...Gulp!:)

Yes, I did forget my Bible on Easter Sunday. (Ironically, the last time I can remember forgetting my Bible for church was two Easters ago.)

Yes, we were running late and I didn't get any pictures of Natalie's first Easter. The matching little hat that she had with her dress never even made it on her head.

Yes, I got paged to the nursery during the service and missed the Easter message. Oh, Natalie Grace!

Yes, my kids are pictured below wearing bunny ears.

Yes, Donatos IS indeed open on Easter.

Despite all of this, we DID celebrate that we serve the Risen Lord. Jon and I are thankful to know Him as our Savior and used the day and activities around Easter to talk with Scott about Jesus' sacrifice and the reason why we celebrate.


Grammy helped Scott gather some eggs.



(I'm guessing that this might be the first AND last year he poses with a pink and white bunny ear headband.)

  1. That sounds about right. Easter's are always chaotic. It was so good to see you and your kids in person.

  2. Um okay forget the eggs and bunny ears and pictures with the Easter bunny - the only sacrilege I saw was eating at Donatos on Easter.
