Thank you for saving my sins...

Easter is a great time of reflecting on the miraculous and the unimagineable: Jesus died and three days later rose from the grave, doing all of this for my (your) sins. It is unfathomable that a man would lay down his life for me so that I could have eternal life someday, erasing my sins that should send me to hell, but instead will allow me to one day walk on the streets of gold. Thank you, Jesus, for sacrificing yourself here on earth so I may one day be with you in heaven.

We had a nice Easter Sunday together as a family (atleast the morning part). Garett wore an outfit that was passed on from Luke (still with tags on), Wyatt wore an outfit that Grandma and Grandpa Barnoski bought during their last visit, Jake looked sheek in a nice shirt and khakis, and I wore a beautiful dress that Andy picked out at Macy's for me! We went to church on post but it was so full that Wyatt couldn't go to Sunday School, there were too many kiddos and not enough help. Garett, on the other hand, was the last one they could accept in his class. Thank goodness... sitting through service with one was hard enough! Wyatt did pretty good. He watched us sing, said a prayer with us, colored a little during service, and then just rested on daddy for the remainder of the service.

After church, we headed out to the Cloutier's house to drop off the boys. They will stay there for the week while Jake and I have some grown-up time in Florida. Wyatt got to do an easter egg hunt with the Cloutier kids shortly after we left. I don't think he misses us just yet! :)

Garett looking good!

Wyatt looking good... in his little man's suit! Tie to the outside though... this was something Wyatt did not want to tuck in. How else would his friends get to see it?!?!?! :)
