EGGstravaganza!

So, I wasn't planning on taking the boys to any egg hunts but my mom mentioned that this local church was having one. I decided we'd check it out and it was pretty fun. LOTS of kids...good thing I stuck near Brendan he would have been trampled. He didn't get many eggs..there were a lot of kids taking more than their fair share but oh well. He still had fun!

It was cool that the church had a short gospel message and song before the egg hunt. It is so hard these days to keep the focus on the real meaning of Easter. As the kids get older I really want to make that clear to them. Nothing wrong with a little egg hunt but people can go way overboard with Easter baskets and the Easter Bunny. Brendan is still a bit young to fully understand Christ's death and resurrection but we're doing our best to show him the real meaning.

Have a truly Blessed Easter!! Don't forget the real reason we celebrate! Christ has RISEN!!!
