Easter 2017

We had a really good Easter weekend! I've been a part of a Bible study on the Gospel of John this year. Recently we've been talking about how heartbreaking it was for Jesus to be separated from His Father because they had always known a perfect imagination. I can't imagine feeling completely separated God. We've also talked about how difficult it is to imagine how much it hurt Jesus to take on every sin in the history of mankind. Think about all the times you have to forgive someone in your lifetime, and then multiply that by billions! This study made this Easter more meaningful than ever.

On Easter Sunday we went to church at South Gate and headed to Kansas City immediately after the service ended. Robert sister and husband hosted everyone. The house was packed with family, and it was such a nice time. Lots of tasty food. Sarah's first Easter egg hunt was totally adorable. She likes peekaboo and hide and seek so this was right down her alley. She loved scoping out eggs and finding treasures inside.

After our time at their house we went to Robert's mom and her husband's house. They have a dog named Moose who Sarah has become somewhat obsessed with. We watched videos and look at pictures of him. We FaceTime him. So Sarah was pumped to see him in person! She loved throwing his ball, petting him, and giving him treats. Jason, Bethany, and Sadie came over for dinner. Sarah enjoyed hugging and kissing Sadie which was very cute! It's crazy to see what a difference 15 months makes when you see a 5 month old and 20 month old together. I know they'll be good friends!

Sarah slept really well which is always a huge blessing when we're away from home. Bethany and Sadie came over again for breakfast, chatting, and a short stroller ride, and then Jason joined us for lunch. We hit the road right after lunch so Sarah could nap in the car. We stopped in Bolivar to see my family, and Sarah loved getting to stretch and play. When we got back to town Robert had to go immediately to a track meet and drinking performance for kids, so I tucked Sarah and got the honor of unpacking, cleaning up, and doing. Woohoo.
