He is Risen

I am pretty sure I used the same title for my Easter Weekend blog last year; "He is Risen," but it still applies and never gets old. Our family celebrated in true Christian American style. We attended a city-wide egg hunt sponsored by a local church on Saturday. It was pretty crazy. Tons of eggs and people from all sorts came out of the woodwork for the free stuff. Sunday we attended church and Sunday afternoon Jena and I colored eggs with Kaiden. The true meaning of Easter was certainly not lost in all the cultural celebrations. He has risen, indeed.

Some Quick Hits:

-The co-ed volleyball league started last Thursday. I quickly came to the realization that volleyball is much harder than it looks. We had a great time playing, though (staff, residents, big brothers and sisters). By the way, we lost too. Team Yellow got roughed up by Team Green.

-During our weekly chapel service last Thursday, Larry did a fantastic job sharing his personal testimony. He served in Leadtime last year and is currently an intern.

-Coming up at the end of month, the Killer B's, once again, have another concert. I am losing a key musician and it will be his last "gig." More to come on that...

-Our numbers have shifted a little. 12 girls and 15 boys. It always seems to come in waves.

-Jena and I will out of town next week on a much needed family vacation.
