April 2012

Matt & I began the month celebrating our 12th wedding anniversary 4/8/12.  We took a 'cooking class' on Saturday evening.  We made meatloaf, green beans, mashed potatoes, and mac & cheese, with bananas foster for dessert.  It was a fun evening!


On Easter Sunday we celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our savior and the best role model of servanthood we could follow.  The kids had their first experience of 'washing mom & dad's feet' as we talked about Jesus' Passover Meal with His disciples.  While Matt & I washed their feet we took the time to pray over them.
As the month went on we had many opportunities to continue serving others through our regular activities and some extra ones.
