Easter Sunday was the final event of our Semana Santa after an exhausting week in Ciudad del Este; we were definitely grateful that Brandon had Monday off, too. We needed the extra day to recover!
Much like every Sunday, we headed to church to celebrate the resurrection with our new church family. The associate pastor and worship leader was MIA, though, because his wife had gone into labor! Their son Macaias was born late that afternoon. We shared communion and Bailey played outside with some of the other little ones that are still too young for Sunday school. She decided that she didn’t even need the catnap that she usually gets on Sundays.
After church, we went to our pastor’s home and began setting up for Easter lunch. After a feast of roast, ham, mandarin orange salad, mashed potatoes & gravy, carrots and fruit salad, the kids set off on an Easter egg hunt. Bailey had finally fallen asleep, but when she woke up later, the kids helped hide eggs for her (and helped find them for her, too).
It was a fun day together as a family and we tried to capture a cute picture of the girls together...key word: tried.
