The Holland Family: He is Risen!

Our Easter weekend started on Saturday with a date day! Travis and I don't get very many of these, so I was thrilled that he finally had a weekend off! We slept til about 8, got up and watched some tv and then got ready for the day. We went to lunch at Applebees in Chesapeake and then shopped most of the afternoon! That evening we met our good friends Keith and Jess for dinner in Virginia Beach to celebrate Keith's 26th birthday!

Sunday was an even better day! I got all ready for the day while Travis slept and as I was heading out the door he jumped out of bed and surprised me! Little did I know, he had taken the day off work!! So he quickly got dressed and we headed to Chesapeake to spend the day with my family. We had an absolutely awesome, so amazing I can't put into words service at Faith Alive! The new building was awesome and the service was incredible! (Check this out):

After church we headed to my parent's house where we had a bbq for my newphew Nathan's first birthday. The kids enjoyed an Easter egg hunt, we had good food and a great time! I am so thankful for all God has blessed us with. I truly cherish the moment's I'm able to spend with my family. We couldn't be more blessed. We serve a God that is alive and well and I am so thankful!
