Belt Testing

Toby has his first belt testing today for karate. He now has his advanced white belt. He's been working really hard and I think he is really enjoying karate although he finally admitted he really misses baseball!!

Happy Easter!!

Happy Easter everyone!!! We were going to start the day the weekend down at Cedar Creek lake, but the weather was against us and Grandma fell and broke her hip Thursday night. So, we ended up spending Friday at the lake to celebrate Memaw's 84th birthday and then came home. Today we were going to start the day with the SONrise service at church, but it was cancelled because of the horribly cold weather here! Can you believe it snowed here yesterday, it's crazy!! Instead we started with a Big Easter breakfast, then went to church and came home for an Easter egg hunt!!

My lovely friend, Diane, in San Antonio, sends me my Cascarones eggs (confetti eggs)every year from San Antonio! She's never let me down and they made it here yesterday! I never asked her to send them, she just started one year after I moved back from San Antonio. It always brings a smile to my face when I see the big package sitting on the door step!!!

We'll be having Easter lunch in a bit and we will sit and talk with the kids about the true meaning of Easter. They both understand what today is REALLY about and actually listened to the sermon this morning!

I hope each of you have a wonderful Easter day and praise God that Jesus has Risen and we now are ensured of eternal life in Heaven!!!!
