Happy Easter Week!

Easter week has been very busy for us. It all started out with the annual Easter Egg hunt at CUMC last Saturday. On Palm Sunday, Katharine's choir sang at the beginning of service. The week continued with our weekly Lenten Service, Maundy Thursday Service, Good Friday Service, a prayer labyrinth and we will round up the week with Easter Service tomorrow. Yeah, the kids must think they live at church!
Waiting for lunch and the Easter Bunny.

We have been to every Easter Egg hunt our church had since having kids and it's always been fun. It's gotten a little more complicated, getting every child to their hunts, but still a lot of fun! We met the Easter Bunny and friends from Sunday School. Here little Audrey and her mom Amanda.
Lennon really liked the Easter Bunny
Travelling in style.
At Christ United Methodist, nothing is done without food. So of course lunch was served at the Easter Egg hunt.


 A rare occasion: All 6 Doeschers in one picture. Thank you, Amanda!
Friday afternoon we decorated our Easter Bunny Cottage with all kinds of yummy things, all very high in sugar and then put it together. We added the finishing touches, such as grass, chicks and bunnies today and wrapped it all up ready to go to Grandma Donna's house tomorrow. Katharine and Lukas insisted on that.

The finished product. It is a true collaboration between artists of all ages, including a new door that Lennon decided to bite into it! Tomorrow we will have a little Easter Egg hunt at home (to see what the bunny sent from Massachusetts), after church we will hunt more eggs at Grandma Donna's house with our friends Gwen and Trinity. We are blessed to have friends and family in so many places! Grandma and Grandpa, Oma, Anita, Jakob and Anna, we wish you could be with us this holiday. Grandma and Grandpa, we are counting the days until your visit! Wishing you all a very Happy and Blessed Easter!
