I hope everyone had a superb Easter season. We certainly did. We tried to hammer home to the kids the true meaning of the season, but wow, what a heavy idea of our Saviour choosing the cruelty and brutality of the cross so we could have forgiveness of sins. Sometimes I wonder how much we as adults "get it."
This year we spent Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the States with my family. Each of my siblings and my parents took rooms at the Clarion in Grand Forks and we had a blast! The hotel has a water park that was perfect for the ages of our kids. They LOVED it! And they had so much fun with their cousins in the pool. It was a perfect set up with tables and chairs surrounding the water park so everyone could watch and enjoy if they weren't wanting to get wet. (Except when Brady took out his new supersoaker, some of the "watchers" were also getting wet!) We did some shopping, some resting, had a treat hunt, we played some games and generally had a FANTASTIC time.

Nicoley enjoyed the "hot pool" the most!
On "Resurrection Sunday" we went to church and had supper at Papa and Nana's. The kids got another treat hunt and had a great time with their big cousins. All in all it was an Easter to remember!
