Easter

 We have a rule that their must be light coming in the window before you can get up on mornings that are extra special. Today I was up and starting breakfast before anyone else awoke. The Easter bunny had laid his usual eggs of specific color across the living room and kitchen. The kids hunted for them and got candies and goodies. They each had a prize they had to follow a clue to find.
Today Allie joined us for Easter church service. This has been a long awaited answer to prayer. It has been almost 2 years since our family has all been together with Allie. There have been a lot of circumstances for not getting together. There has also been a lot of prayers for Allie. I was very happy she could spend the day with us. Cornerstone had one of their special dramas. This was the first time Allie had been to our church. 


All the families were at Karen and Orries's for a nice Easter meal. I think the girls all enjoyed seeing one another. At the end of the day, Mark offered to drive Allie home. Another answer to prayer, the two of them had a hour and a half drive with lots of talking. They both needed that so much.
We have been watching the bible series on tv each Sunday night with tonight the finale and ressurection. They did a fabulous job making the series. Jesus is the reason we celebrate Easter and he is risen. He paid the ultimate price to cover our sins so we may have eternal life. Awesome.

Volleyball

Jake  went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s  Volleyball game in Coon Rapids.  They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them.  Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

 In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini  television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

 It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
