Celebrating Easter, Fitz, and "Baby Girl" Davis
What a great and blessed weekend! We packed as much as we could into three days. Jenna, Jared, Marlow, Jackson, Chad, Tara, and Fitz all came into town on Friday. Justin, Keelie, Jonah, Glory, and Molly were with us all weekend as well (with the exception of Justin on duty Saturday). Rickie was around off and on as he had to have shoulder surgery on Thursday. Friday night we enjoyed a meal together and some nice patio time; the guys shot some fireworks off after dark.
We had a beautiful Saturday. The kiddos all got to participate in our FBC egg hunt. Kelle and Martha brought the twins to join us there. After a fun egg hunt, we went to Marilyn's for lunch. Afterwards, Marilyn had planned everything for Fitz's first birthday party. It was such a fun time celebrating him with everyone. The kids all enjoyed the crafts, eggs, and just being outside! Later, we grilled at her house.
Today, we enjoyed a great Easter service together at church. (When Marilyn and I have our grandchildren with us, we celebrate the blessing and legacy of fifth-generation family members worshipping at FBC.) For lunch, we had an awesome brisket Justin had smoked; he's got this brisket thing down to an art! After lunch, we surprised Chad and Tara with a "baby sprinkle." Their second baby is a girl yet to be named. We played a Scattergories-style game to name that baby! I am not sure how much we helped them, but it sure was fun. We will meet her in July!
This mom/Nanna/Aunt Di is so blessed!
Psalm 100:4 "Enter His gates with thanksgiving...."
Sounds like a wonderful Easter!
