I've been thinking about it and I'm thinking I'm going to take a little Easter break and be back on
Monday... So, see you all then! :)

easter week hopes and days 27-28

This week will be special for me. And hopefully it will matter. Yesterday at church my Pastor gave a great sermon on how we can make this Easter week matter and having receptive hearts to spiritual growth that God can do by:
"weeding" out the negative things {like sharpening the focus of what media you intake}
and
"feed" the healthy things {reading the Easter story, talk to Christian friends about what's really important and slowing down}



The ways I'm hoping to accomplish these goals are {and I am in no way trying to appear self-righteous, I am simply trying to share with you all what I am trying to do to be intentional this week!}



I want to "weed":
-Internet time {Facebook, and any thing that consumes valuable time}
-Plan blog posts more effectively {the latest posts have been "blah" and thrown together in a hurry... I want to slow down and plan the posts out}
-And I'm going to try and listen only to the Christian music on my iPod, no secular music... So I can center my thoughts on God and everything about Him...

I want to "feed":
- Reading the Bible this week
- My working out each day
- Efforts in being productive this week {making my Easter dress... I again waited last minute to make it. And with all the time spent offline, I'll be able to finish it quicker!}

What do you think? Are you doing anything special this week for Easter?

Being on a big boat in the middle of the ocean without enough lifeboats when the ship sinks... Big boats scare me!

Easter Eggs

This year my family and I colored our own Easter Eggs, the colors turned out amazingly! Here are pics of them.

Here are all the eggs the kids did
More of what the kids did
All the red/orange eggs. If you notice on some of the eggs there is a white stripe on it. How we did that was by putting a rubber band over/ aroud the egg and then dyed it and when the egg was dried we took the band off.
The blue eggs, the blue turned out great!
This color was SUPPOSED to be a purple, turned out more of a blackish color.
The yellow eggs. Almost looks like duckling yellow.
These are the colorfulu shells of the Easter eggs when we made.....
Deviled eggs!
