Easter is one of my favorite holidays because of the great meaning that it holds and how pivotal it is to my Salvation. Last year I unfortunately didn't get Good Friday off of work since I teach at a private but non-Christian school. Well this year, Spring Break and Good Friday coincide so I got to have today off! YEAH!
My mom and I and the kiddos went shopping today. Janea got 2 new dresses(1 for Spring, one for Sunday) new sandals(and it may snow on Sunday) 1 top( on clearance for a 1.60...couldn't resist) and 2 new pairs of jeans! I got 2 new blouses, a new necklace and earrings and a snazzy new purse...Dan owed me something for my birthday! Jaron got new sneakers and a new Spiderman shirt...and my mom got some stuff too. So today we shopped til we dropped and tomorrow we will get to dye Easter eggs, and make Easter candy....a Spry/Jonathan family tradition!
All in all a great way to celebrate new Life in Christ as well as the beauty of Spring...tonight is our church's Tennebrae service a great way to refocus on the pain and suffering of Christ on the cross for our sins. I hopefully will get to go but it doesn't start until 8:00 tonight, so it depends on how Dan is feeling and the kiddos.
