easter sunday.

haley spent the weekend in muskogee with my mom, so on saturday travis and i headed out to prepare for her easter.  my poor guy.  he walked so slowly through the store pushing the cart.  i can tell he just feels miserable.

he put in several special requests with the easter bunny while we were out and about.  i'll let you be the judge, but i think mr. easter bunny and his little helpers did a pretty good job.






both of our families had an easter dinner, but we weren't able to head down for either of them.  travis just didn't have any strength. our friend matthew love sent me the link to their church's living last supper.  i had never seen a living last supper, and it was so special to watch.  i'm so grateful to matthew for sharing.

when haley got home she loved her easter "basket." {yay!} and kept thanking us.  i kept telling her it was that sweet easter bunny who visits once a year. 

my parents didn't spend a lot of time at the house visiting after dropping off haley, but they could tell i was exhausted.  travis and i neither one have really gotten any sleep over the past month.  he is up a lot during the night, and then we're working during the day or trying to nurse him back to health on the weekends. 

they had been gone for about half an hour when the doorbell rang.  i opened it up and my mom and dad were back.  with flowers.  i love them so much.  they take good care of me.  this bouquet was perfect, too, because it had so many blooms just waiting to burst. 
 
 

the past month has been tough, and i wish i had more answers and could take away this pain from travis.  today, more than ever, i'm grateful for new life in christ.  

matthew 27:50-53
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people. (NIV)
