Aloha Easter





There is something about celebrating this special day in the Hawaiian Islands...it is a place that you feel near to God and are in awe of His glory! This week has been a time of reflection and repentance for me more than any other Easter season of my life...I have been constantly aware of the sacrifice Jesus made for us, but today we celebrate because He is RISEN!
Because we are so far from our immediate family, we celebrated today with good friends of ours, the Perrys (we're so sad because they are moving in a few weeks). Clif and Breck were in Afghanistan together and Adrian and I both had our babies while our husbands were away...a set of circumstances that seems to have bonded us closely!
Today we are humbled by the fact that Christ died for us, and joyous that He is risen and sits on The Throne. Happy Easter, friends!

Happy Easter Clay-boy. Don't grow up too fast in that big truck. I miss your parents especially on this special holiday. Thanks for the photos, Aunt Kat! It's good to see that Clay is still up to his tongue tricks!
Love you 3,
