Easter 2010

Easter weekend 2010! Warning. . .lots and lots of pictures. On an exciting and happy note, this was my first Easter as a Nana (Grandma)! Drew was a little young this year but wait until next year. On a sad note, this was the first Easter that all of our children weren't with us. I missed Kristin. I missed getting to take a family picture. But thank goodness Richard and I got to go see them on Saturday. She and Brandon were in their churches Easter production. Brandon, again this year played the part of Jesus. I still can't watch or listen to all of this. The tears just start flowing and won't stop. I seem to have no control. Brandon did such a wonderful job. Here are a couple of pictures.

This is my awesome husband and wonderful father to my children. We are on our way to church. It was a beautiful Lord's day.

Here is Drew. This was his first Easter basket/bucket. He is 6 months old here. Darling Easter outfit!

The Easter bunny brought him a pair of sunglasses, a couple of books, a new swimsuit with a hat, and a new summer outfit. And look at his shoes. Just darling!

Mother and son. What an awesome blessing.

And an updated five generation picture. Great-Great Grandma Opal, Great Grandpa Jerry, Grandpa Richard, Kayla and Drew. Family. . . such a blessing.

And Kayla and Drew again. He was in such a good mood, at least long enough to get a few pictures.

And this was his first encounter with grass. Itchy, scratchy, grass. Not to sure what to think about it.

Kristin labeled this picture "Crazy Baby".

And more new shoes. These are from Grandma and Grandpa Payne.

Hannah got to come over and eat Easter lunch with us. And then spent the afternoon with Brian. Very pretty and sweet girl.

And this is my Poppa. Richard and I went to vist them after lunch. My dad is
68 years old.

I had an absolute wonderful Easter weekend. I am so blessed. Thank you Lord! Thank you Jesus for so freely giving up your life on the cross so that I might have a chance of ever lasting life with you in eternity.
