Our Easter

What a special Easter we celebrated this year! As we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus, we were surrounded by family and delicious food. While it is easy to fall into the temptation to make Easter about egg hunts and bunnies, may we always cherish the true meaning and center of the Easter holiday: Jesus. 

I want to know Christ-- yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Philippians 3:10-12

Here is a picture story of our glorious day :o) 

Once Mac and Paisley got up from their morning nap, we dressed them and started capturing our memories. 

Annnnnd they were getting tired of the pictures already. If Mac would talk, he'd tell me to have Paisley leave him alone. I bet that will happen quite a bit in our future ;-)

Family pictures!

Cousins!!

These are my two favorite girls... Paisley will have such fun with her Lilly Scott and KK.

I even got to blow out candles! :o) 

Love all these kiddos and babies! 

I must pause and share these pictures from last Easter...

 ... and here we are now... a family of four. Wow. 

We love you, M and P! We are SO incredibly blessed to be your mom and dad.
