Mother's Day Brunch

 Anna was adorable singing in front of the moms. Although she was kinda shy the majority of the time. She was tired that morning though. 

With Bryan being out of the country for Mother's day having brunch a week before Mother's Day was perfect! They went all out. Felt so loved!

Goodbyes at the Airport

 We missed Bryan tons over the past two and half weeks while he was in Africa. So good to have him home and to have a bit of time to get caught up with my blog. 

The two cute polka-dot girls!

My nephew's shirt made my day!

Little Gymnast

 We were super proud of our little gymnast and her two friends for their fabulous recital performance.

 Anna was the line leader for her class and performed great in front of a large crowd. Wasn't even phased.

Resurrection Sunday

Forgot to take pictures of the rest of the family! ;)

Passover Meal

I love the Kessler family tradition of celebrating a Passover meal from the standpoint of what Jesus' life symbolizes for us as Christians. It is so rich. Here are a few pics from that night. 

Spurgeon's Sermon on Gethsemane

I feel a week or so ahead of Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday as I have spent some time this month preparing messages for the kids at church. In the spirit of being ahead, I read this amazing message by Charles Spurgeon and wanted to share. Made me put more thought that even before into what happened in the Garden of Gethsemane  Spurgeon is deep and his vernacular is outdated to many but I think this is well worth the read.

Sermon on Gethsemane

Also, want to thank Blue Letter Bible for posting this! I LOVE this website. It has made a tremendous impact in my study of the Word over the past couple of years.
