He is Risen!

We have had a very special week celebrating all Jesus accomplished on the cross and enjoying fun activities leading us in anticipating today's celebration of the resurrection.  Alivia said she wished it could be Easter every week and it was a good reminder that every day should be a day of celebration for all God has done for us!  What a joy to live in the reality of having our sins paid for and to anticipate spending eternity in the presence of the One who loved us enough to sacrifice His only Son to take on Himself what we alone deserved.  

Alivia at 4 with a wonderfully sweet spirit and a love for adventure.

"Are you guys ready for pictures yet?  We are!"

James made us laugh when he blurted "Easter cheese".

"I see you playing peekaboo behind the camera."

Thanks for enjoying time with us today, Grandpa & Grandma Reed!

"I'm excited to eat lunch, Grandpa, are you?"

As we celebrated God's gift of new life this past week, we were also blessed to celebrate the arrival of a healthy new nephew to Stephen's sister and family.  James and Alivia were captivated by the size of baby Stephen.

So much to be joyful about as we celebrate God's amazing gift!
