Easter Festivities

Last week we joined some friends at Purina Farms for the Easter Celebration there. Nora loved petting all the baby animals, but all the bigger and noisier animals were too scary.

Peter enjoyed the animals too, but was mostly excited to play with the tractors at the corn tables.

Benjamin had a great time playing with his preschool lady friends.

Of course we also did the usual festivities too. Coloring eggs,

hunting for eggs (indoors, since it was much too soggy outside!),

and making "Empty Tomb" cookies. We just started making them this year, but they were a tradition in Paul's home growing up. We also made a lamb roast with our Easter feast, and shared it with some friends and family. We had a wonderful Easter; I am so grateful that HE lives!
