Happy Easter...and a new family tradition!

As Kelly and I were "celebrating" Easter this year we decided that in addition to sharing a traditional holiday meal with our family that we would watch the movie The Passion of The Christ every year at Easter. I know, it sounds a little weird to commit to watching a movie in order to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, but the film gives such an unforgettable image of what Jesus went through in order to save us all from sin. It is a great reminder of how much God loves us, that he sent his one and only Son to die for us, that whosoever believes in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life!

I think it's a wonderful tradition. Michael was just asking this weekend if we owned it 'cause he wanted to watch it but we didn't have it. Hope your easter was great. Love and miss you guys!
