Happy Easter

I had a great Easter with the family and hope you guys did too! Yesterday we drove to Midlothian to see Jared's grandma and have lunch with his family to celebrate his birthday. Then today we went to church, my mom's house in Keller, and then Jared's sister's house in Allen. So we drove around the world but it was so fun.

Today at church, I was worshiping God and had a heavy, tired heart. Just from the situations around me, I feel drained and overwhelmed sometimes!! But when I was singing, I just really thought about Jesus dying on the cross for us and how hard that must have been. He could have just stopped and said wait, never mind, this is TOO much, but He didn't. If being beaten, spit on, ridiculed, tortured, and then dying on the cross, rising again, wasn't too much for him, if that wasn't too big for him, then I am pretty sure what I am going through is not too big for HIM! I am so thankful that He died and rose again so that I could be FREE! So think about that, no matter what you are going through today, it's not too big for HIM!! Give it to him!

Birthday Idea's for Jared

I need some idea's! So all of my 3 reader's or so can give me some idea's! MmmK!!! Jared's birthday is next week,the day before Easter and I decided to make it special, I am going to have an entire week of special things for him. Starting on Sunday, and I will do something special every day until Saturday, his birthday. So far the only idea's I have are to make him a nice dinner one night, give him a massage one day, write down 30 things I love about him and give that to him, (he is turning 30)and...um...well I think that's all I got. So I need help. Then on Friday night we are going to go out and do something fun, I am also trying to think of a special restaurant or something cool we could do that night. Of course, I need ideas that will work with my budget as well! ; ) So thanks in advance if you can think of anything!
