Easter!

We had a great Easter week...totally different than last year, but wonderful and busy! We celebrated Kai's birthday on Friday morning. Our church watched the Passion on Friday night and I took the kids into our house to watch some VeggieTales. Then on Saturday night we had our team down for dinner and introduced our Peruvian family members to the tradition of dying eggs. They were skeptical at first but ended up loving it! Sunday morning we had church and then feasted on a Peruvian/American meal with ceviche (a raw fish dish), a potatoe dish, and deviled eggs...quite the mix! We also did a mini egg hunt in the house for Kai and Eliser (our pastor's son). It was funny because at first Eliser kept looking right at the eggs but only picked up the ones that looked brown...I had to explain to him 3 times that the eggs were all different colors:) It was wonderful to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord with our family and church here!
