Easter is a day that we come together to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ! He is alive and well and I know because He lives in me! God loved us so much that He gave His only son to die for all our sins! We didn't deserve that kind of love but He gave it anyway! It's so easy to get caught up in all the easter novelties. The easter basket, candy, new sunday outfits, and of course the perfect easter meal time with friends and family after church!....Guilty as charged! This was Amelia's first easter and you can imagine how ridiculous Matt and I felt picking out our own easter candy at Wal-mart and using Amelia as an excuse to buy it. But since she can't eat it.... bon apetite for us!!!
After a great church service, we headed off to our annual easter eating spot! The perdido beach resort has a fabulous easter buffet and we go every year! I guess we'll have to make a special trip back to Gulf Shores next year = ( When we got there we headed straight for the food! First thing first...get Amelia a plate of mashed potatoes to keep her happy!! She loves potatos! I also managed to mash up some glazed carrots and macaroni and cheese! She LOVED IT!! She is getting so good at feeding herself! She is growing up too fast! However, I'm not too sure how well she did today..... this is pitiful really!
No folks, this is not the latest hair trend.... this is Amelia's mashed potato hair creations!! HAHA!
I was able to clean her up a bit to get a few more pictures in her sweet little dress!
We hope everyone had a blessed and happy Resurrection day!! May the power that raised Christ from the dead dwell in you every day!
