Easter Morning

He is Risen! Happy Easter!

It is Easter morning, baskets are set and hid...husband is working out, I just finished a bible study and kids at 7 am are still sleeping! What a way to start any day...but even more to start Easter Sunday!

Our kids rarely sleep past 7 so on the days that they do I just hold my breath and wonder how long the bliss of sleeping children will last. It is funny when kiddos are sleeping, I find myself continually thinking...when will the moment arrive that they will awake and then once they are awake I think about all the things I wish I would of got done while they were sleeping.

Easter Sunday for us consists of finding Easter baskets and then heading off to church to celebrate the real reason for today! Usually we are at my family's house and the boys are with all of their cousins. Our oldest son kept asking "Whose house are we going to stay at this year because we always stay at someone's house for Easter." This year we decided to stay home and enjoy the day with some friends. It is weird to have things different than how they normally are but it is also nice to mix things up every once in a while. So it will be a nice celebration and then brunch with an Easter egg hunt to follow!

Many Easter Blessings!

I hung it on the cupboard and thought I would use it the next time I was sick. Well, about six months later...I have a head cold that is just lingering on. Mom of two little ones being a the slightest bit sick is no fun at all. So I threw together the "kick the bug" juice. I just so happend to have all the ingredients on hand. I am not sure if it is the mixture that is kicking the bug or the thought of actually drinking this concoction that makes one think themself better. Nonetheless I am giving it a try and will definately report back on how I think it works. The recipe comes from Carolinas Natural Health Center. Kick-a-Bug Juice Indications : Sore throat or any inflammation or infection in the throat and neck ear infections nasal or sinus congestion This potent juice will amp your immune system and get y
