Easter 2017

I think Easter is my favorite holiday. No, not the eggs and definitely not the bunny. But the amazing celebration of the empty tomb and hope of new life in Christ!

I love spending time with family and friends dressed in beautiful colors and enjoying cool weather.

 

And cousin traditions are incredibly special in our family...the lineup, youngest to oldest...

Almost all the great grand babies...missing Everett and Wyatt :(

The tomb is empty...our hearts are full!

Big Bend

Josh and I enjoyed the unique beauty of West Texas and the Big Bend one weekend together before our 12th anniversary. The photography was really fun...and the being with Josh.

Fort Davis...I remembered quite a few features from my 5th grade school trip!

Ocotillo

Santa Elena Canyon

Rio Grande

Water fossils etched in the walls

One side of the canyon is Mexico, the other America.

Javelina

Funny story...when we checked into our hotel room, it was infested with bees, hundreds of them. We got an upgrade in a historic hotel in town and stayed in the nicest suite! Sweet!
