Happy Easter!
It's just the two of us and our pup this Easter. The first time we don't have our families surrounding us on a holiday. It's bittersweet but we're trying to adult it out.
Side note: we've learned we are pretty terrible at adulting. Our shower cracked in a few places and we had the maintenance people come and check it out. Come to find out it was a pretty big deal and they have to do a week's work on it, which means we are shower-less.
So our apartment lent us the keys to the model apartment so we could use that shower. Being the sweet wife I am I took ALL of our toiletries to the other apartment so it would be easy to shower and whatnot without having to carry things.
8:00pm rolls around and Andy decides to take a break from studying and go shower. However, the apartment people forgot to give us the alarm code {minor details...} that obviously arms itself after hours {or someone armed it after I left. Remember I left ALL our toiletries}.
Needless to say, at 8:00 at night we are standing outside this apartment, that isn't ours, in our pajamas talking to the police- with our dog. Well, the police can't shut the alarm off and the apartment people wouldn't answer the emergency line. The neighbors are pretty pumped about us being there at this point.
We have to leave, no shower, no getting our things {not even my toothbrush}, and hope for better luck next time.
So much for that. I think the pool is going to be our temporary shower.
Oh, another reason adulting just isn't my thing. I submitted my application for my OT license without notarizing it because I didn't know what notarizing was. I know now.
So we celebrate Easter pretending to be adults. I think it's interesting that Christmas is a bigger, more elaborate holiday than Easter. Personally, I love Easter. Yes, Jesus was born on Christmas but he died and rose again for us on Easter. I think that should be bigger. But no one asked me. And why is the Cadbury Bunny an egg from a bunny? That just doesn't make sense...
I'm filled with so much joy celebrating the freedom Christ gave us 2,000 years ago and continues to give us today. My heart always breaks when I think about the torture Jesus endured for me but death could not keep Him! The grave is empty and will remain empty forevermore.
An adult breakfast coming at ya to start our morning.
We went to New Life Community Church. It's where we have been attending. We miss our family at Havenfield so very much but New Life has been great for us.
I made a pot roast for lunch {I even put it in the crock pot the night before, that's an adulting success}.
Andy studied most of the day. Such is his life.
Raja completely destroyed her panda. She reminds me of Sid in Toy Story the way she treats her toys. Sometimes I feel really horrible for her toys, like I betrayed them by giving them to her.
She had a happy easter.

She had a happy easter.
I'm not a huge flower person but I thought these brightened up the apartment.
My mom has been sending the scorpion emoji at the end of her texts to me, not sure how that makes me feel. But I get to hug her tomorrow! For a whole week.
I trust you all had a great Easter with family and friends. I also trust you're better at adulting than me.
"It was for freedom that Christ set us free" Gal 5:1
Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.
Do you believe this?"
John 11:25-26
