Our Multiples Journey: Expo, Eggs & Easter

Last weekend was fun! Not only were we able to celebrate Easter on Sunday, but we also enjoyed going to a local expo on Saturday where Andy had a booth promoting his tree business, Oak Meadow Tree Service.

As you can see, Andy kept things on the up & up!
He had 2 climbers join him at the Expo-
Vince, an amazing worker and climber, and Jenna, apprentice-in-training!

The Expo was full of local vendors. I brought the four littles along and they did awesome walking from vendor to vendor with me. They also loved that daddy was there working, and loved the entertainment that "big sissy" and Mr. Vince provided.

We celebrated Easter Sunday with one of my favorite traditions, Resurrection Eggs. It tells the story of Easter, with each egg revealing a piece of the story of Christ's betrayal, death, and resurrection.

These actually held the attention of all 5! While chocolate and bunnies are fun, I believe sharing the real meaning behind the Easter celebration is extremely important. It is a sobering reminder but critical when understanding all Jesus did for our sins. After that, and to celebrate Christ's resurrection, we gave each child his or her own basket of goodies. Of course, that was exciting for all!

Slinky's, coloring books, chalk, bubbles, puzzles, and candy were some of the fun items.

After baskets & a yummy breakfast, we went to church and Andy's dad and brother joined us. The message on resurrection was amazing and if you are at all curious about why Pastor Jeff says there is no need to have a bucket list, watch the sermon here.
