Easter 2010

Our Easter weekend was pretty busy. I took Good Friday off of work to get things ready for Easter. Carl and I went down to the church to put together the treats for the Junior Church kids. We put together 36 treats, and had only one left at the end of the service.

Saturday, I had an Easter Egg Hunt Party for the Junior Church kids in our Fellowship Hall and grounds. I was a little worried when we first got there with it raining like it was. But God helped us, stopped the rain and brought out the sunshine. Here are some pictures from Saturday.

Sunday was pretty busy. Our church had a Sunrise service at 7:00am, with breakfast in our Fellowship Hall afterward. It was a little hard to get up that early, but it was totally worth it. The whole day was absolutely wonderful...well minus the migraine part. I am so thankful for the price that Jesus paid for me on the Cross. I am so very thankful that He rose from the grave, and because He lives, I can have life everlasting.
We went to Grandma Miller's for dinner after service. Then we came home and I took a much needed nap. Sunday evening, we had a music service. We had different people of the church sing and play songs, mixed in with a few congregational songs. It was a wonderful service of praise. After the service, Jenn took a couple of pictures of Carl and I outside. Here is the best one.

Candle Giveaway!

Since my husband is working on a Saturday; since it's been a cloudy, rainy day; and since it's been almost two months since I have done a blog post. I am doing a GIVEAWAY! Carl is working on a Saturday evening for a co-worker, but he will have Labor Day off. That will be nice because Carl will be able to stay at our family reunion as long as he likes. For the past few years, he has only been able to stay for an hour before heading into work. Instead of staying home by myself, Mom and I went shopping. We went to a consignment store called Off The Hanger, where I bought this pair of shoes for only $6:   Cute, huh?   We also went to Bath and Body Works. They were having a Labor Day Sale. The 3-wick candles are 2 for $20 this weekend. The mini candles are 2 for $5, and they also have lots of other things on sale. I love it when they have the candles on sale. I absolutely love the candles at Bath and Body Works!   I bought these two large candles.  ...

What do you collect?

Image
I am sure every person out there has some odd or crazy thing he or she collects. Especially when you travel...do you have a certain object you like to buy/find as a souvenir? Some collect those spoons with the location on the handle. Some like the shot glasses or keychains. Others may enjoy postcards or stamps. I am sure you can think of lots of things you could pick up when you are on vacation or visiting a new location. Me, I like to get these: For some crazy reason, I love to get these smashed pennies. They are usually pretty cheap, only 50 cents to a dollar each, and make a simple souvenir. I thought I had more of these, but maybe I gave some away. The ones here are from Texas, Arizona and Chicago. I look for these penny machines at all the tourist places. I think it's fun. May I also right here say that if you are traveling and come across one of these machines, think of me and get me one? If I may be so bold to ask for a souvenir... I would love to add to my collection!
