Happy Easter!!










Zeke's talk in church today.  He didn't read it.

On the first Easter two apostles were on the road. They saw Jesus.  Jesus told the apostles to go tell the others.  They were in a room with the door shut.  Thomas wasn't there.  Jesus appeared in their midst.  The apostles told Thomas that Jesus had risen.  Thomas didn't believe them.

They were again in a room with the door shut.  This time Thomas was there.  Jesus appeared in the midst. Jesus told him, "Be not faithless but believing."



I believe that Jesus is real and that he has risen from the dead.

The trick is using a microwave to unthaw it.

Zeke: You made your corn!  I love it!  It doesn't taste anything like corn.  It tastes more like heaven!

When in Rome... This isn't home!

I had all of the kids at the store, and let them wander while I was doing my own thing.  I glance up and Dempsey is on top of a twenty foot stack of mattresses, jumping.  I waved her down.  I told her that they aren't for jumping and she said, "But their beds."

Later, I saw her out of the corner of my eye sitting on a display potty with her pants around her ankles. Yes, she did.

A long came a spider and a stork

Spiders are bigger out here.  Easier to spot.  Dempsey called up from downstairs in an uncertain voice.  When I went down I saw that she had cornered a really big spider.  She had a handful of tissue. She was ready to kill it but hestitated, "It might bite my toes."

 
I am about to have a new baby coming.  On April 16th at 7 am Aunt Polly and Uncle Will went to the hospital.  Cole and Grandmom went to see the baby.  He was born on April 16th.  We are going to see him tomorrow.

The cook out and later the fireflies.

We had a cook out.  It was fun.  We gathered up the wood by ourselves.  Uncle Will got some from Grandad's.  We cooked cooked marshmallows and hot dogs.  It was just me, Cole, Sage, Uncle Will, Aunt Polly, and Dempsey. 

We also jumped on the tramp.  It was really fun.

I went to bed in Cole's room.  I was just about to turn my reading light off and go to sleep when Aunt Polly burst into the room.  She said, "The fireflies are out!"

I woke up my mom. She came out.  Dempsey came out too.  They only flashed for one second, not counting the thousandth part.  We tried to catch them but they were too high.  It was a very fun time. 

Rocktown:  We went to Rocktown.  It was a long drive.  Their were boulders and boulders everywhere.  I really liked it.  Some of the giant boulders were bigger than a really big house stacked on two.  There were really good climbing spots. 

Unlce Wes visited.  He set up some things on the Wii.  He downloaded some games.  He is a Wii expert.  I want to go see him again.
