On Friday we went to our church's Good Friday service and it was a really good service to remember why Jesus had to die for our sins. On Saturday I had an A-Ha! moment when I realized that Saturday had to have been a very hard day for Jesus' disciples; their Messiah had just died and left them wondering what was next. They didn't have our hindsight that Sunday would be such a good and glorious day.
On Easter we celebrated with our Trailhead family and friends. It was the first Easter that we didn't spend with our families, which was a little odd but it was a good weekend nonetheless. We had a few friends come over after church for an Easter Fiesta.
We made beef and chicken enchiladas and also had chips and dips, fruit and strawberry shortcake for dessert. Since the weather was so nice, we ate on the back patio. To bring the fiesta full circle, we listened to mariachi music and sipped on sangria, lemonade and the fellas chose Corona.
To top it all off the fella in the green shirt at the end of the table, Kevin, was baptized on Sunday! How awesome is that?!
