Easter Weekend...

I can't believe a whole week has passed since Easter, but I kept meaning to post pictures and this is the first chance I've gotten. Last Saturday was a beautiful spring day so we took the bike up to Fredericksburg. The ride up there was fun and we were surprised by all the wildflowers which were in bloom.

Although we went to the Easter service on Friday evening to make room for guests at the other five services, we both went on Sunday morning to serve. I of course was teaching Sunday School, and Larry was driving the cart in the parking lot. The crowds were incredible and Max preached an awesome message from The Story that just happened to be on the risen Lord...good timing, huh? This next picture is a presentation done by our fifth graders that was done in all six services and then I was able to take a picture when they performed it for our children at the last service on Sunday. It was a "musical video" about the death and ressurection of Jesus and had been written by a teen in our church who also led the fifth graders.

After church on Easter, we had made reservations for brunch at a hotel downtown, but that was a huge disappointment...bad service, unappealing food and surroundings...we won't be going there again! That evening, Larry and I took off again on the bike and rode up to Canyon Lake. It was beautiful and kind of restored the day for us. We ended the day at The Gristmill, one of our favorite restaurants in Gruene.
