Amazed

Happy Easter!

The last word of the Lent challenge is:  AMAZED. A good word for Easter Sunday. It's amazing and awesome and marvellous that Jesus came back to life. 

Herself doesn't feel well enough to go to church these days so we cuddled up together and watched BBC's Songs of Praise to celebrate Easter with many other followers of Jesus in a similar position.

Celebrating the amazingness of Easter!

We also went for an Easter walk this afternoon. Enjoy.

Herself loves trees in blossom, especially against a blue sky.

I was happily ambling along when I heard a voice:
'Come on Scamper! Photo shoot!'

Herself and I don't know the path ahead of us or what the next twelve months will bring.
But we are choosing to trust God our Father -
and hope that by next Easter we will be able to celebrate His Son's resurrection in church.

Merry Christmas

It's very Christmassy in our house. Presents under the tree, carols playing, notes everywhere reminding Herself to defrost the turkey, tinsel in every nook and cranny.
Because tomorrow is Jesus' birthday! Yay!

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Mary and Joseph had to leave their home and travel down south to Bethlehem.
Mary was pregnant and Donkey got tired and kept lying down.
But everyone smiled.

By the time they arrived everywhere was full and they ended up with the animals.
Eugh.
Donkey was happy though.

May and Joseph didn't get much rest that night because Jesus arrived.
Donkey looked on and smiled.

Other people were busy that night too...
An angel freaked out some shepherds who'd pulled the night shift.
'The Saviour of the World has just been born!'

The shepherds (with Sheep 1 and Sheep 2) went straight into town to see the new baby.
Everyone smiled.

Even more people were busy that night.
In the east, some wise men suddenly spotted an unusual star.
'Oooooh look, that means a new king has just been born. Let's go and see him.'

Camel, accompanied by the wise men, travelled all the way to Bethlehem.
They brought the baby King Jesus special gifts:
gold (nice),
myrrh (smelly),
and frankincense (no idea ??Frankenstein).
Everyone smiled.

Merry Christmas everyone and thanks for visiting my blog!
