A belated Happy Resurrection Day

Happy Easter to you all.

I was going to do some blogging about Easter but that hasn't happened. In truth, we haven't done much in the way of Easter crafting this year. The last couple of weeks have been full of action here at home so the fun creative stuff ends up last on the list of things to do.

We did manage to discuss the Easter story quite a bit which is good as the kids are all getting a bit older and able to understand more than they have before. I found a blog that had all kinds of wonderful and thought provoking activities for Easter. I will definitely keep that book marked for next year. We did this activity to remind us of why Jesus died on the cross.

Other than that we spent the weekend with family and friends. Oh yes, and there was the torchlight procession in town on Saturday night. The fire fighters from our town had a float in the procession and so we all were involved in that. Very long night but lots of fun.

School holidays are here for 2 weeks which will be good. I am going to try to keep positive and try to focus on having fun with the family these holidays. So often I get caught up in what hasn't been done instead of getting on and doing things!

How was your Easter?

I still have Christmas CDs in the car but you'll be happy to know I did manage to get an Easter CD as well. Here is my favourite song from the CD... except this video is performed by someone else... This one has a spoken word piece in it too (which I like too).
