Emma's first Easter

We had a busy weekend!! On Saturday morning, we cleaned house and Josh and Emma played with Easter eggs. See what they came up with? They put them on their eyes, and Emma just laughed. Then, Saturday afternoon, Emma and I went to Martinsville to pick up my mom and grandma to go to a baby shower for my cousin. Toni got lots of nice things for Baby Turner (they are not telling the name yet) The painging someone at the church did for her is amazing!! Emma got lots of attention from everyone, and of course, loved it. After the shower, we went to the mall for a pic with the Easter Bunny. She did great - not afraid at all. Then, we shopped a little for Allie, and Emma got a new pair of tennis shoes from Nana.

Then, on Sunday, Emma celebrated her first Easter at church. It is our risen Savior that put it on our hearts back in 2005 to pursue adoption in China. Through obedience to that call, we have been so blessed by this child, and by the many friends we have made on this journey. Emma did great in Sunday School, and went to theShe did great in Sunday School, and went to the nursery during church. After church, we went to Maw and Paw's for lunch and play. She had a great day, including getting lots of candy and goodies from the Easter Bunny...
