Easter blessings


Happy Easter!
We began our Easter celebration with Easter Vigil on Saturday night.

We hosted Easter dinner at our house.  Nathan and Teresa planned something entirely new for the afternoon this year.  They practiced all day on Saturday to present a BMX Bike Race for our family.  As plans progressed, the race became not only for entertainment, but also a fundraiser for Cranio Care Bears. (Rachel decided to put her proceeds toward her American Girl doll fund.) :)
They got Rachel on board to sell lemonade and KoolAid before the race.  They also sold raffle tickets for five cents, with the winner getting to announce the winners of the race.
In the end, they raised $11.40, which will help mail care packages to families facing cranio surgeries.
