Easter Sunday
Sorry I haven't blogged in forever. This weekend was Easter ( as you should know ) and I've been thinking of Jesus' humility to come down and die for us. I've been struggling with this for a while. On Good Friday we went to our annual service at 7 o'clock and a staff/assistant pastor had an awesome service. Before I go any further I should explain that he painted 8 pictures for Jesus' last days. They're very modern and abstract ( I couldn't understand any of them ). That night there were lots of candles and people blew them out during the service until it was completely dark except for one small candle on the stage. Then Jesus breathed his last and the candle was blown out and it was completely dark. Darkness had taken the king of the world until Sunday. Everyone prayed and then left. Then Easter Sunday! We all rushed down stairs to see our Easter baskets from Santa clause .......... oh that's a different holiday. We then went to church and learned about death ( and resurrection ). At home we colored eggs and then we hid them and found them at least 4 times. Then 4 people we know from church came and we ate an awesome Easter dinner and watched AFV and Extreme Home Makeover. It was a great Easter and a beautiful day for Christ to come back.

New Year's Eve on A Snowmobile?
Last night aka.(new year's eve) we went to a friend of ours house with about 12-15 other people and stayed and played games and rode snowmobiles. I want a snowmobile to ride around on all day. Those things go like 60 miles an hour and it feels like your about to fly away on it. I went with my friend's dad on about a mile long rode through the woods on it. It was awesome! After that we went inside and played some games and ate snacks and drank eggnog (just joking). Then we left at about 11:45 and we were on the rode when 2008 started. Cooper and Kayla were asleep but not me. I've never been up on New Year's Eve but this year I'm glad I did.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
