Beautiful Weekend!!!

What a beautiful weekend we had! Papa Rooster and I went shopping Saturday morning. He bought us a new toy!!! A Kubota RTV that we can all ride around the farm together. That, and our friends can use it when they come fishing! (BTW, ya'll have got to come do that soon. The weather has been perfect.)
Saturday afternoon I attended a baby shower, and then Saturday night, Papa Rooster's Grandmother had her 85th birthday party. Can you imagine 85 long years!?
Yesterday was an especially wonderful day in the Lord's house as we celebrated Resurrection Day. Chicken Little and I didn't make it to Sunrise Service, but we did enjoy regular service.
All the children we so beautiful in their new Easter outfits. We even hid eggs that they could find. I'll tell you, that FlowerChild is quick!!! I think she found the most. She just seems to "get" the idea of hunting!!
Afterwards we had lunch at my in-law's house. Papa Rooster's sister is in from out of town, and we all really enjoy her visits.

**On a side note, speaking of my sister-in-law...I'm asking for special prayers for her and her husband, as they are going to Honduras on a mission trip in the summer, which if they feel the calling, may turn into a long term mission trip. Please pray for them as they continue to fully serve God!!**

Last night was so nice too. Church service was very casual, but such a good message. (I tried to listen through the distractions of the little ones playing). I'm going to step out on a limb and say it was about Abraham and Issac, and how we have to make sacrifices to give ourselves fully to God, even when we don't understand the sacrifices to be made!!! (Hope, I'm right...LOL)
After services all the little ones played. My Chicken Little is smitten with everyone. She just smiles and coos. I loved our church family. It's such a blessing to have people who love us the same!!!!!

How was your weekend?!?

  1. Wasn't it a great Easter weekend? Enjoyed getting to sit and visit yesterday in the quiet before service. Ha, it wasn't so quiet once service began...but you know how those preacher's boys are LOL! Chicken Little is growing so fast we won't be able to call her 'little' much longer!
