Easter time in Greenville


Ryan and I headed to Greenville on Thursday night last week. We were so excited to spend time with Ryan's family and to see our much-missed dog, Scout.

We got to Greenville and met Cory for dinner at PF Changs....so delicious and a nice way to start the weekend!

Then, we headed to Powdersville to see Ryan's mom and dad and Scout. We were so pumped to be reunited with him again!

Friday, we had to do some work and went for a walk downtown...it was beautiful! We went to the Good Friday service at Grace and had a wonderful time of worship and communion. Ryan and I got pizza and watched "Did you hear about the Morgans?". It was such a fun little date night!

Saturday was gorgeous! We enjoyed the nice weather. Ryan helped his dad do some work while I read.

Mr. Mike cooked out for all the Reese brothers...steak and shrimp...mmmmm!! It was wonderful spending time together laughing and eating...great fellowship!



                                     

Britt thought it would be a fun idea to decorate Easter eggs....she was right! The girls (and Matt) had fun dyeing the eggs and making them cute. We were a little limited on supplies, so we had to use 7-up to dissolve the coloring tablets which made for some crazy colors. But, we thought they turned out pretty good!

   

                                           
  



Easter Sunday was such a beautful day. What a joy to celebrate Christ's love for His children at Easter time. We enjoyed worship at Mount Pisgah and then went home for pictures. We went to Aunt Elaine's house for Easter lunch and then headed home. It was such a wonderfully perfect weekend!!!

                               
                                   

Hope your Easter was wonderful too!

The Shame Game

Ashamed. That is one of the main feelings I can use to describe how I have felt this week. Ashamed. When my 4 year old fought against 3, yes 3, grown medical professionals trying to obtain a strep test (which he did have). I saw the looks they exchanged as he bit the tongue depressor and gritted his teeth and made their job a living nightmare. Ashamed. When it was my two boys fighting that caused the other little boy to run and tell his mom that they were making his play time not so much fun and then they left. I felt like I saw a look that she gave me too. Ashamed. As I carried two bawling, boneless children through Publix trying to get to my car after they pitched royal fits through most of the checkout line. I saw the look my grocery cart helper and an older lady walking by exchanged as they took in my helpless state against the two raging children. Ashamed. When I lost it on my 6 year old who needed me to stay in the room so he could go to sleep when I was trying to

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it
