We were a bit shocked when we looked out our front window yesterday and saw...snow. We California types have never seen a snowy Easter. It didn't last long and barely hit the ground before melting, but it was a fun surprise.
The snow was the big news of the day. Easter was very quiet this year.
We had church at home as a family. That's been the usual for the past month or two because of transportation and language difficulties. The kids like to reenact the lesson whenever we have home church. Yesterday Corrie (playing the part of "they and certain other women") stopped the reenactment to run to the kitchen and get some spice. While we are pretty sure basil didn't make the list of embalming spices, we didn't speak up. At least we know she was listening:
Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.
But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.
Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments.
Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?
He is not here, but is risen!
Hope you had a great Easter.

You Californians aren't used to snow so much that Ransom isn't even wearing socks, let alone shoes!
