Easter in the midst of chaos...

Well...we are finally in our new condo, after a week of moving boxes and furniture back and forth...praise the Lord! I was reaching the end of my rope with daily trips back and forth, loading and unloading. It feels really great to be in one place. We made a huge run yesterday with trucks and trailors to get all the furniture in and now I'm working from room to room setting it all up...which of course is due to my type A personality that will not let me rest until it's done! Travis is a good balance for me...he has no problem relaxing in the midst of boxes and messes...

So last night, in a state of total exhaustion, I realized that I forgot my iron at our old townhouse and I hadn't even thought about what we'd be wearing to church! The only bad thing about being on staff is that you lose your ability to slip in and slip out without anyone stopping you. My anonomous days are over!! So, we wore whatever had the least amount of wrinkles...which made us matching again. Much to Travis' delight. However, it was a beautiful Easter day, finally full of sunshine. We had a great service at Grace and then we went out for lunch with my cousins and their kids...and we ate way more than we should have at an amazing brunch! However, in all my moving chaos I somehow forgot to purchase a chocolate bunny, which I look forward to every year, so I'll be off to Target tomorrow to rack up some loot in the Easter clearance aisles! Better late than never!

To top off our day, I was thrilled watching the Master's and seeing an Iowan, Zach Johnson, win! I loved that he beat Tiger and I especially love that he's a Christian and he repeatedly praised Jesus for his victory...and he thanked and complimented his wife...and he's a die-hard Hawkeye fan...could he be any better??? The answer is no! It's good to be an Iowan today...

I'm posting some pictures of our living room, dining room and kitchen. We are loving our new place and I'm working like crazy to get unpacked and make it feel like home. What a fun Easter to remember!!
