Covid 19|| Our Easter

He is Risen!
A little cliche these days - but Easter looked really different this year.
It's one I will remember, tho.

We had time for a slow morning (when we would normally would have been to sunrise service and had breakfast and then come back home)...we were waking up and making Biscuits and Gravy.

Baskets were VERY simple - one each of their favorite candy and a new game to share - Catan.
(2 weeks later, we might be experts on said game and have played several rounds and even banned said game for 3 days due to arguments, real life)

Amen to that!
Joe had put the hardware back on this little beauty - it looks great in it's new home.

Grandma made the boys a pan of cinnamon rolls for their Easter present.
I would show you a picture - oh wait, we at them!

We did a devotion and then we listened to service together.  
I REALLY enjoy taking notes and focusing on the sermon.
But, I sure to do miss my church friends.

We enjoyed Easter baskets.
Everyone was satisfied.  Love that.

We played a round of Catan
and
this child did not lose gracefully
he followed me into our bedroom and flung himself
on the bed to pout...we recovered and played a round later...

We've been taking a lot of driveway walks - not the most flattering picture of either of us-
but I'm reminded that flattering has lots of different looks and joy is one of them.
We were laughing at ourselves.

Thankful for the slow pace of Easter this year.
Thankful for our Risen Savior!
We missed gathering with our families and that will be even sweeter next time.
