Happy Easter After

Last weekend (actual Easter) we began our celebration at church. The girls (Kayleigh & Emily) sang in the kids choir. It was special to me for the girls to sing & for mom & David (Nan & Pop Pop) to be there, since my Nanny passed away on Easter Sunday 8 years ago. I have peace knowing she is having her own celebration in heaven with the Lord! It was also special for the Stone families, Greg & Brenda had Chad & Sara, & Leslee & Drew with them. Kyle & Marla had Kylee & Dylan with them. Elwanda had the majority of her kids, grand kids & great grand kids at church! After church we gathered at Elwanda's for lunch. For many friends and family members it was a 1st time for them to meet the newest member of the Stone family Crockett. He is Chris & Jessica's baby boy & is so very precious!


After lunch we continued our celebration & went to Ryan, Oklahoma for a GIANT Easter egg hunt! We saw Trisha (MiMi), Karen, Tara & kids (Caige & Camille). The hunt was held at (Carolyn's cousins) & although it was our 1st time to attend they welcomed us. Congratulations again to Karen for finding one of the $100 prize eggs!

Today we celebrated Easter at Mom & David's (Nan & Pop Pop). Papa Jerry, Joseph & Jennifer, the boys (Andy & Tommy), Casey, the girls & I all enjoyed visiting, eating, & the kids played outside & hunted eggs. Family is important all the time, but it is nice to be together especially during the holidays!

We will always know our risen Lord is with us now & always!!
