Easter Sunday

Jackson experienced several firsts this past weekend. It was Easter Sunday and Jeremy was playing percussion at Christ the King so that's where we decided to go to church.  Jackson experienced his first church service and first Easter...when I say experienced I mean slept through. We had a great Easter weekend.

Grandma Jean came for the weekend and gave me and Jeremy the best Easter gift ever...a whole night of sleep- an Easter Miracle!!! She also helped out on Saturday so that Jeremy and I could get some stuff done around the house.  I had taken using two hands for granted. Now I realize how nice it is to use both of my hands when doing a task.
 
I cut Grandma's hair. I think it looks pretty good!

On Sunday Jeremy was playing at the church, so it was very nice having mom help me get Jackson ready for his first church outing. She helped me get him dressed, fed, and gather all of his equipment. I thought he looked so cute in his little blue, collared outfit.

We made it to Lubbock without any problems (other than being late) and enjoyed our Easter Sunday service celebrating the resurrection of Christ. Grandma Jean, Jackson, and I sat together in the overflow section. Jackson was awesome! He just slept through the entire mass! After the service we took a few pics of our family and friends and then headed back to Littlefield.

When we arrived at home, Jeremy surprised us with a few Easter gifts! My flowers are still beautiful and smell wonderful! He remembered to get a little gift for all of us, including Grandma Jean! After the Easter gifts, Jeremy grilled out and we enjoyed a tasty Easter dinner. While Jeremy was out grilling, Grandma Jean was playing with Jackson. He has started smiling and Grandma is claiming the first smile! I guess she deserves it since she is such a good Grandma! Overall, we had a wonderful weekend. I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful husband, mother, baby, and of course- SAVIOR, Jesus Christ! Happy Easter, indeed.
