Happy Easter from Colleyville!
Yesterday we had snow flurries on our bluebonnets and today it is trying to improve. We understand it will be more seasonal in a couple of days. Hooray!!
Lacey and Jacob both were acolytes at the late service today so afterwards we came home for a Mattson traditional Easter meal.
(We couldn't agree on what to call a big meal in the middle of the day.)
After lunch I asked the kids to give me 3 things that were brought to mind with Easter -
Brynne: 1) Buy one get one free at Macy's. 2) Mom this is so lame... 3) Only getting 1/3 of the box of peeps. (Guilty)
Lacey: 1) "Mom this is so dumb!" I refuse. 2) WHY?? 3) I DON'T WANT TO!!
Jacob: 1) Candy 2) Chocolate bunnies 3) an (empty) tomb
BINGO!!
I have seen many slick ads, catchy wording, hi-tech displays, internet videos galore, but my favorite this Easter was the ad in the paper this morning, paid for by Hobby Lobby.
It simply said:
He Lives!
He is not here.
HE has RISEN!
Just as he said...Matthew 28:6
