Happy Easter

Happy Easter!!!

What a joyous day. We got to celebrate our triumphant King with our complete family. How great is it that our God is true to his word? And that our Savior conquered death? What else can we fear? I was able to speak of God's plan and promises through our trials at church today. It was awesome to tell our story. Lord knows it was not our plan or our way but His way and how much greater it is than our own. Thank you Jesus.

The boys are adjusting so fast. We did the Easter Egg hunt this morning. It was the first morning that they were sleeping past six and we had to wake them at 6:45 in order to do baskets and get ready for church. It was really fun to watch them find eggs. The Easter Bunny brought the boys fishing poles, a tackle box, a movie and candy. Plus, all of the grandparents handed out major loot. I don't think they know what to do with it all. We had a lovely day and the boys are in the bath right now.

Funny phrases....

1. I told Sintayehu that his stomach hurt because he ate too much. He replied, "Not two much Mommy, only one much."

2. We have been working on saying No Thank You. Today Dawit said "No Thank You" when Grandma handed him his coat. Grandma tried to explain just Thank You. After three rounds of incorrectly saying it, he finally replied "Your Welcome"

3. Sintayehu said, "I see the Easter Bunny at Tenya (Sleep)" That's right the child who is scared of the Easter Bunny is seeing her in his sleep.

Here are some pictures of Egg dying and Easter.

Most of the eggs looked kinda brown by the end.
