Easter 2013

Easter was -


the James family clothed in spring green, waking early to don the church in beauty, a meaningful and joyful celebration with peacock feathers, toasts, party poppers and the kids dancing with gusto in the back, my paintings used for the edification of the church, listening to my Dad testify to Christ's work in his life and health, holding baby bunnies and kittens in the warm sun and a big pancake breakfast with church family.  It was taking Easter pictures in the yard (Uncle Matt making us smile), matching neck-wear, dining on ham and potatoes with my family, a relaxing drive down to Arlington for Easter dinner #2, an Elephant pinata,  British meat pies, Hummingbird Cake and many special treats. It was driving home late, nestling in bed with my teacher-love for some last minute lesson plan touch-ups for the both of us. Yes, Easter was full, fun, beautiful, meaningful, with countless reminders of the boundless grace and new life we celebrate.
