Easter Celebration

He is Risen!  He is Risen indeed!  This Easter Sunday started out with an awesome worship service.  The church was jammed pack.  Chairs were brought out to fill the isles, along the back, anywhere there was extra space.  It was a wonderful celebration.
Kevin came home with two friends from school.  They were home the whole weekend.  Kimberly came home on Sunday afternoon with three of her friends from school.  We had an Easter dinner around 3 and spent the rest of the day hanging out in the back yard, relaxing, taking naps, going in the spa, playing Outburst and playing Around the World Ping Pong!  They all left around 10:30 and that feeling overcame me again.  The feeling that they aren't my little kids anymore where they climb into their beds at night and I can tuck them in.  No, they pack up their cars and drive away!!!!  
Then the next morning you find reminders from the activities of the day before and life goes on.  

I'm still picking up after my kids, but I wouldn't want it any other way.
