adventure is out there

every day in an adventure with these guys. 
{but if only we could go on an adventure each week :)}

this big girl was most excited to fly her kite on our adventure and it was the perfect weather for it.


juno and her love of rocks, every time we turned she had some in her hands and would try to take them even if they were part of a wall.

for the past two years the parents in mira's preschool class continually to call her maribel. my girls will probably always have to correct people on how to say their names. every time i have to give a restaurant a name (when you are waiting to eat), i give them one of my girls names and almost every time they do not ever call it out. they come and get us.

this week we had the chance to walk the Easter path and experience holy week, the death and resurrection of our Lord. each activity made everything more real and understandable for the girls. we got to write what we praise Jesus for on palm branches, wash each others feet, write our sin on glow in the dark paper, felt what it was like to carry a cross and walk on gravel, nail our sin to the cross, light a candle and pray over the debt he paid for us at the tomb, making flowers and celebrating our risen King and then finding our place on the map and talking about the great commission.

we also go to go to a passion play at the girls preschool church, where they got to see the story played out. they girls were so captured and juno was constantly in wonder at where Jesus was and what was happening to Him. she now has said "i want to see Jesus." throughout the remainder of this week.
i do to baby girl.

our church is finally having a good friday service this year and we will be going tonight. and i'm trying to talk my giant into the sunrise service on the mound in flower mound.

happy easter!
