0 for 2

Christmas and Easter Christians we are not. We love our church and we hardly ever miss a Sunday. But in the last year we were not able to attend Christmas Eve services due to a blizzard and today we missed Easter services because I've been sick. I feel terrible that we didn't get to visit family or participate in all the events that were planned this weekend. But that terrible feeling doesn't compare to how terrible I felt early Saturday morning after passing out on the bathroom floor then vomiting and having diarrhea. Today I'm on the mend. I have a bruised nose and a swollen lip from my fall. My energy is slowly returning as I'm able to eat something other than crackers and toast.

The weekend wasn't a total bust. The boys have had fun playing outside in (what I'm told) has been beautiful weather. Our super sweet neighbors hid Easter eggs and invited them over for a hunt. A big THANK YOU to Dan & Renee!!

We say in our family that "plans are subject to change". That doesn't always sit well with me because of my planning nature and slight control issues :) but we must play the hand we are dealt. We will be wearing our "Easter Best" outfits next week. And even though we weren't in church on Easter, we celebrate the risen Lord today.

Happy Easter!
