We had a delightful Easter here in MA. I, in particular, loved the opportunity to be involved with the amazing music that was presented during Easter week here at the Church. Being a part of the praise team, backed by the choir and string section, and celebrating the resurrection in song was a joyful Easter for me! It was also fun seeing how much more the kids understand this year about the meaning of Easter. Each of the three girls have accepted Christ as their Savior, so Easter has real meaning for them!
The kids enjoyed an egg hunt in Grandpa's back yard on Saturday. Silas was delighted with finding eggs, and even more delighted to discover that some of them had CANDY inside!
Easter night Kevin's sister Amy and her six kids arrived for the week. The kids love seeing their cousins, and we have been fitting in all the fun possible! Yesterday we went to historic Sturbridge Village. There are buildings and houses to tour, animals in the barnyard to see, and interesting costumed staff to teach things like what a tinsmith does, and how to make soap. They are demonstrating their skills as they tell the kids, so it is very interesting! We saw a Punch and Judy show, and petted a new lamb.Lots of hugs for Grandpa!
Some of the cousins!
The absolute favorite part for our Little House on the Prairie fans was the play area. They had costumes, and a fully stocked house for the kids to play in.
They did laundry...
Started a "fire..."
Cooked supper...
Churned butter...
Swept the floor...
and hauled imaginary water for washing dishes.
All in all it was a great day, enjoyed by each of us.
