Happy Easter!

Wow! Here it is, Easter already! We have had a great day. We went to church this morning to celebrate Jesus's resurrection armed with streamers to wave during the songs & a bag of toys to keep little darlings amused during the short preach. It was a lot of fun! The boys enjoyed dancing & going on the kids parade around church, then they sat relatively quietly playing with their new mini Mr Potato Heads that came with the Easter eggs Lee's parents bought them. They loved watching the older kids dance performance & seeing the resurrection scene from Mel Gibson's film The Passion. Luke kept asking to see the big stone moving again & shouting out 'Happy Easter!' Timmy really enjoyed listening to Pastor Nic talking & kept repeating what he was saying. They all sat so nicely. It was great!

We came home & had an egg hunt in the garden before dinner. The boys loved it! They each had a little basket that my mum got them & scoured the garden for mini chocolate bunnies & eggs & a larger bunny full of smarteenies (as Timmy calls Smarties! & no, Helen, they aren't Nestle!). Have spent most of the afternoon enjoying the sunshine in the garden & at the park. Popped out to deliver the Easter presents the boys made for their Godparents too (can't post piccies yet as my parents haven't seen theirs yet!).

Hope you are all well, God bless you heaps! :O)

Should think you were exhausted after all that! Happy Easter one and all. We celebrated with lots of Christians in a packed church at Selworthy near Minehead. It's a tiny place and VERY beautiful. A young lady called Julia got baptised and the vicar was greatly blessed by all the young people and families there. before that we were high up on Exmoor and came down Porlock Hill (scarey!)
These people send their love to you. Les and Andy, Jean Hewlitt( now a grandma) Peter Bentley. Mary and John, Norman and Christine (Rachel expecting when you are!) Lots of love mum and dad xx ps looking forward to the Easter bunny coming!
