We celebrated our second Easter with our beautiful little girl on April 24th. The day was rainy and dreary, but that didn't matter as we were celebrated the resurrection of our Savior. I told Matney many times that day how important the day was and though I know it didn't mean a lot to her this year, I know in the years to come it will mean something to her as she grows in her Christian faith.
We enjoyed a beautiful church service and lunch at Brandon's grandparents. The kids played in an egg pile and collected their eggs. They received several gold dollars and way too much candy!
We hunted eggs in the house at Nannie and Papa G's while celebrating in shifts and continously picking at the ham as Nannie and Papa were watching over Grandma Leota who was not doing well and would soon go to heaven. Grandma Leota was with us for one last Easter and then went to heaven shortly after to live her eternal life. What a celebration of the life that God has given us, to know that our grandmother lived through 87 celebrations of His life and knew where she would go because of his sacrifice and where we all would go to live forever.
