A great Easter weekend!!!

The Reilly's had a great Easter weekend. I am so excited to be able to share all about it with you. :)

First up is the Easter egg hunt on Saturday. WOW! It was great. We had almost 50 children participate and of course our 2000 eggs too were spread out everywhere, some hid better than others. Most of them were just scattered around the whole yard. :)

Here we see the eggs scattered across the front steps into our church. There was just so many of them that everywhere you looked there were eggs. In the next few pictures, you will see how they were spread out and scattered across the whole area that the church owns. It was truly an unbelievable site to see. As the children came they were in amazement as to how many eggs there were. I think their eyes were as big as the eggs too. (lol)

The church bus even got into the action, thanks to Pastor Tom who had a very bright idea in putting the yellow eggs here! :)

The helpers even put my van to good use as you can see here in these pictures. It was affectionately called the Easter Buggy thanks once again to our amazing Pastor Tom. Tom truly is a wonderful Pastor and someone you can truly tell has been called into the ministry for all of the right reasons! Praises be to God for that.

After all of the fun with the Easter egg hunt, I came home and prepared for my parents to arrive. On Saturday evening we had a nice supper out at Applebee's and came home to prepare for our family meal on Sunday. My mom and I colored eggs while my dad and Scott had time to talk, check things out on the internet and share some jokes.

On Sunday morning, we all went to church together. It is always nice to have my parents go with us. I really enjoy having them here and join us in worshiping our amazing Heavenly Father. Scott's family came over around 12:30 to have dinner with us. There were 15 of us around our farmhouse table in the dining room. Having Easter at our house has become a tradition and I really love doing it. Everyone had a great time talking, laughing and just catching up on all of the activities that are going on. It really was a blessing as always to spend time with not only Scott's family, but my parents as well. We couldn't have asked for anything more, including the beautiful sunshine that fell down from the sky. Thanks be to God!

I hope that all of you had a great weekend and a very blessed Easter. My thoughts and prayers were with you all and as always continue to be with you each and every day.

Hugs and blessings,
