A couple weeks ago, my husband had the honor of baptizing Konnor. It was an awesome day celebrating what God was already doing in our son's life. He has been on a journey of learning what it means to follow Christ (and still is!). He came to the point where he was ready to make the public statement of his faith. It has been so cool to see him feel genuine remorse and guilt over his sin. I even heard him telling his younger sister how she could become a Christ-follower, too.
We were so happy to have many of our close friends and family there to celebrate with us. It was truly a day we will never forget!
We had a busy Easter weekend with Secret Church on Friday night and services Saturday night and Sunday morning. The kids and I made resurrection rolls using this recipe. Let me just say, they were YUMMY and so easy! We will definitely make these again!
I mean, who doesn't love a cinnamon/sugar/butter covered marshmallow wrapped up in a crescent roll? I love how once they are cooked, they look very similar to a cave!
(BTW- we used reduced fat crescent rolls, I can't believe it's not butter and splenda in place of all the real stuff and they still tasted awesome!!)
The kids got into their Easter baskets about 5:30 because we all had to be at church super early.
After an awesome day at church, celebrating the ultimate sacrifice made for us, we had a great lunch and came home for some egg hunting.
(yes, my son was running around in his diaper- classy, huh?)
Here they are (+ a few neighborhood friends) digging into their loot.
It was a great day!

Thanks Vanessa for your headboard link! If I don't find something cheap-I'm going that route! :)
BTW-so wonderful about your son. I pray that my kids will at some point also want to be baptized.
I know what it's like to think you're in control and not follow Christ, so it brings me great joy when someone does!
