Hello friends! It's a beautiful day today! The sun is shining and spring seems to have finally arrived. Every time we step outside now Cassidy yells "It's SUMMER!" I definitely share her enthusiasm!
We had such a great weekend! I spent most of Saturday in the kitchen making soup for our fundraiser lunch we had yesterday. I need to make soup more often, I forgot how amazing it makes my house smell! We also bought a stroller/carseat combo off the Warman/Osler Buy and Sell for a really good deal. Cassidy and I took the stroller for a spin Saturday night and it is wonderful! Much much better then our old one. Another step closer to baby! We've also started rearranging rooms around. Right now our office is in the downstairs room and our spare bedroom is upstairs. My sister is going to be renting the downstairs room starting this fall and the spare room will be the nursery so we've started figuring out how we're going to rearrange things. I bought a dresser for baby last weekend so that is all set up in the nursery now too. Getting everything set up has made this all feel so much more real! C'mon baby!!
Yesterday was our soup and bun lunch and it was a great time! The soup turned out great and we had a great response. We made $1535! Our church family has been such a blessing to us and we are so thankful to be a part of such a wonderful body of Christ. We are planning on having one last fundraiser and hoping that will put us over the top for finances! I'll keep you posted!
Easter is this coming weekend and I can't wait! Our church joins together with a few other churches and we have a joint Good Friday service on Friday morning. This is my favorite church service of the year. I am always moved to tears as we sing about the cross and the sacrifice Jesus made for us those few thousand years ago. It is something I never want to take forgranted. But of course, the story didn't end with his death, and I love the celebration that comes on Sunday morning as we sing about the resurrection. Hallelujah, God be praised, He's risen from the grave! Both of these services will be held at Sutherland Evangelical Church (110-104th St, Sutherland) and you are officially invited. Jesus died for you and He wants you to accept His gift of salvation. It's never too late.
Get out there and enjoy the sunshine while it lasts! :)
