Happy Easter!

 

 

Matthew 28:1-6

King James Version (KJV)

28 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

² And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
³ His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
⁴ And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
⁵ And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
⁶ He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.



 

 

 

 



 



Happy Easter from our family to yours. 

Matthew's Birthday

Matthew turned two years old this week.  We celebrated on Friday with lunch and cake.  I took a few pictures of him before he opened presents.  

I love this one.  So serious!!  

Then it was time for cake.  

He told me he wanted a Ninja cake.  So I made a cake to look like a Lego Ninja guy.  

Here is a video for all of you long-distance people who couldn't be with us to celebrate.  

Then Daddy told him he could taste the frosting!  

So he did!  

He had a good party and got lots of presents.  Thanks to everyone who sent cards and gifts!!  

Stay tuned for some random pictures including chair shopping with Peter.

Another email blog post here.  Trying with multiple pictures this time.  I'm thinking they are going to be placed together at the beginning of the post because I'm just attaching them to the email.  Not as neat as posting directly from Blogger, but it's an easy way to blog the pictures from my phone. 

Anyway, James broke the playhouse slide a number of weeks ago.  We thought about just replacing the slide, but then decided to go with monkey bars to add a different dimension to the playhouse.  We attached them but they were just too high.  Andrew was a bit too short to safely go across without someone to "spot" him.  So, we added a lower deck to the playhouse and attached the monkey bars to the new addition.

Now we're happy because it's safer, Peter can now get down from the playhouse and Andrew has new blisters from going across the monkey bars so much :)

P.S.  Star-tip wood screws are the BEST thing eva!!

I am testing a blog post from my email.  This is a picture of Matthew at the library.  When James has his English class, we spend an hour at the library reading and/or doing homework.
