He Is Risen...He is Risen INDEED!

I didn't make it home for Easter since I am going to be home in exactly a month (Yeah!!!), but I did have a good day in NYC with some new friends from church.  It was a sunny day (cold and windy too) so I walked to Central Park in the morning and sat in the grass for a while.  I had a sweatshirt on, along with my winter coat, and I was warm as long as the wind was not blowing.  I took my Bible and read through the end of Matthew and relaxed a little.

Sunday afternoon I met up for brunch with some people from church.  We went to someone's apartment and had waffles, dyed eggs, and had microwave Peep wars (something I had never done before).  There were about 12 people there, so it was a little cramped trying to fit that many people into an apartment!  It was fun, and I am thankful for this group of people - they seem to do a lot together so I am excited to do more with them.  We all then walked to church for the 5pm service.  After church, I got on skype so I could be a part of my family's Easter Sunday in AZ.

Below are some pictures that I took while I was walking through the park - all the trees are gorgeous right now and soon there will be tulips everywhere!

So pretty!!!! What kind of trees are those? It doesn't look cold but then I can't tell if the wind is blowing. Love you
