Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, blog friends!  We stayed here in Colorado for the holiday since I pretty much just got here.  I was sad to not be with my family for the first time ever, but the day was still pretty nice, even with the cold, yucky rain. 


The Easter Bunny still found us this week...

And Brent colored Easter eggs with me last night....

We visited a church downtown that is very similar to our church back home.  It was a very nice service, complete with the Hallulejah Chorus and a great sermon.  Here's our 2011 Easter picture, taken on our little patio at the apartment.

The cheesy potatoes were excellent, the key lime pie superb, and the Honeybaked Ham did not disappoint.  The Melt in Your Mouth yeast rolls did not rise, again...but that's okay, because Christ did.  Today I had to remind myself that even though I'm far away from my family and friends, and I can't watch TV in my own apartment this evening because the neighbor's bass is so loud it's shaking the room, all of these little annoyances are just temporary.  There's a problem-free life waiting for us eventually, all because we have a Savior who gave everything for us to have it.  Pretty awesome!
