Easter in Aberdeen...He is Risen!!

We celebrated our 2nd Easter in Aberdeen, minus our family back home. The holidays are always hard for us to be away and I get SO homesick, we really missed our families this year. But we are Joyful that Jesus is Risen!! We are reminded of the sacrifices God made for us and the blessings that God has given to us. He gives us Hope! 

The boys were excited that the Easter Bunny left Eggs in the Garden when they woke up. After the early morning Egg hunt, we went to Church and then Crathes Castle for the Easter festivities. For afternoon High Tea, we met Christi, Brantley and Brady at Kippie Lodge where we saw the Easter Bunny! We hope you had a wonderful Easter.
