Easter Weekend

The highlight of Easter day....after hours of fishing -one fish!! And one very excited boy, the picture just makes us smile.

We had a beautiful day of worship, a relaxing brunch out, and then an afternoon/evening of fishing.  We all know the best part of the day was the one fish caught (which by the way was not caught until the car was packed, ready to go after 3 hours of fishing)! But I must add in the other amazing thing about the day-- we found an owl family and nest!! We are pretty sure they were Great Horned Owls...Mom, Dad, and 3 babies (the babies were over16 inches at least)! Hopefully I will get that pic up next posting.  What a treat- Thank you Lord for your resurrection, family, and your creation!

Boy oh boy does this one know how to melt his mother's heart!!!

oh- he wanted one soooooo bad, maybe next time.
