Easter 2012

Mommy: Jackson, why do we celebrate Easter?
Jackson: Because it is when Jesus died on the cross for our sins. People do bad stuff, and God forgives them. And we get to go to Heaven.

He was pierced for our transgressions
He was crushed for our sins
The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him
And by His wounds, by His wounds we are healed

We are healed by Your sacrifice
And the life that You gave
We are healed for You paid the price
By Your grace we are saved
We are saved

By His Wounds lyrics

TMC Easter Egg Hunt 2012

Claire and I worked registration for a bit this morning. Claire's primary objective was to see how many stamps she could get on her own hands. Amy helped her achieve this goal.
I was super proud of Jackson today. He is normally somewhat fearful of trying new things. He decided he was going to ride a pony...and he did!

Claire participated in the 0-3 egg hunt. And she won a $30 gift card to Chuck E. Cheese's. That's my girl!

Brother was helpful.

Jackson hunted with the 4-6 year olds.

He had a great time!

Claire kept saying, "I want to ride." Over and over again, pointing at the pony. Um, yeah. She changed her mind. :)

What does a 6 month old get in her Easter basket? Diapers and new pacifiers, of course.

Newest praise team member. On the guitar.

Just keeping it real.

Easter Fun!

Easter Egg at Church. Jackson's buddies Eli and Ben Cheng Yu joined him.

Jackson's face after we made Resurrection Rolls. So cool.
