Mamma's Don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys: Easter Sunday......

We got up super early on Sunday to attend the early service at The Edge church, we wanted to be home early to get food started for the houseful of family and friends we were expecting. This is the first Easter in 3 years that both Eric and I didn't have to work at church, so we were pretty excited. The Easter bunny visited while we were at church leaving the kids baskets filled with goodies. He also left a couple at our house for our neighbors Samie & William. Everyone came over at 12 and the party was on. Eric spoiled us yet again with awesome food. Ham, and mashed potatoes, corn and bread and cupcakes and soda and everything you could think of was there. We ate until we were full, and then most of us ate some more. We had a great time soaking up the WONDERFUL weather we were blessed with. I was afraid that it would be as it has been the last couple of years, but we got 70, easy. Which for my mother, is perfect weather for a water fight (actually any weather for her is perfect) she started with the boys and water guns, then Eric dumped a glass of water on mom, and that was the end of the war. Until me. Bria filled a bucket for me, and i was so sneaky i got Eric just as he was coming inside, and i when i say i got him, i got him, literally everywhere, he had to change, which in retrospect was kind of a win for him, as i am the one that does all the laundry. After the water fight and some convincing from my mom, our neighbor Stuart gave us another juggling show, and then let everyone play with his juggling stuff, even mom got in on the lessons. It's amazing how something that looks so easy, is in fact extremely difficult. I really do admire Stuart for the skill, it's something he's worked at hard, and perfected over the years. I also found out Sunday, he can ride unicycles! Awesome!! It was so nice, to sit in the sun, enjoy some drinks and the company of great friends, both old and new. It was a wonderful day to thank God and Jesus for all that he has given us, and be grateful for all he continues to provide.
