He is Risen!!

What an exciting day, I love Easter. Without Easter this whole Christanity thing would be pointless, but the fact that Christ went to the cross and died for me changes EVERYTHING!
HE IS RISEN, HE IS RISEN INDEED!!!

While it was an exciting day, being a part of the music ministry at church meant it was a CRAZY day! Our service went well, we had the service at one of the local high schools so all services could be together to celebrate Easter. We normally run 3 services on Sunday morning and you would be amazed at the fact that people that attend one service DON'T KNOW the people that attend another. So, having one big service on Easter is a great time to not only be together for worship, but actually meet new people who have been attending the church. Now, Jeff and I are a part of all 3 services, so we 'know' most of the people that attend, but it was nice being up front and seeing NEW faces at the Easter service! We had over 800 people together celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Here are some pictures from the day:

The kids opened their Easter baskets the day before, we knew Sunday would be crazy. First we had to be at the school early, then we had the service, then lunch, then I headed to NY to help Heather and Dave for a few days. So, here are some pictures of them opening their baskets:

(the kids knew we were heading to Florida for General Assembly and our Scott Family Reunion, but they did NOT know we would also be heading to Disney for a day...as you can see, they were VERY excited! Let the countdown begin!)
