Last Easter I hadn't started the blog yet so here are a couple of pictures of Ellie Grace and her bestie, Kate from Easter Sunday last year.
I didn't get any really good pictures of Ellie Grace in her Easter dress this year because she is very hard to photograph these days and we had a rough morning already. She hit her eye on the corner of the nightstand and it was horrific for she and I. Thankfully there was no blood but it was swollen and bruised for about a week.
We had a great Easter Sunday. I'll close with the lyrics of a song Josh & I love that is very Easter focused. You can listen to it here if you'd like.
Let no one caught in sin remain
Inside the lie of inward shame
But fix our eyes upon the cross
And run to Him who showed great love
And bled for us
Freely You've bled for us
Christ is risen from the dead
Trampling over death by death
Come awake come awake
Come and rise up from the grave
Christ is risen from the dead
We are one with Him again
Come awake come awake
Come and rise up from the grave
Beneath the weight of all our sin
You bowed to none but heaven's will
No scheme of hell no scoffer's crown
No burden great can hold You down
In strength You reign
Forever let Your church proclaim
O death where is your sting?
O hell where is your victory?
O church come stand in the light
The glory of God has defeated the night
O death where is your sting?
O hell where is your victory?
O church come stand in the light
Our God is not dead
He's alive! He's alive!
