Family Easter Pictures

After a beautiful Easter Sunday service at my parents' church, we went to Bicentennial Gardens to take our annual family photos. When we were little, my sister and I would wear matching Easter dresses my mom had sewn. Now that we've outgrown that tradition, we simply select an Easter "color" and try to coordinate our outfits accordingly. The idea seems to have caught on and now includes the whole family. Rest assured, Dad and Aaron are loving that idea. *wink,wink* Here are our pictures, along with the words from my favorite Easter hymn.

Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia!
Our triumphant holy day, Alleluia!

Who did once upon the cross, Alleluia!

Suffer to redeem our loss, Alleluia!

Hymns of praise then let us sing, Alleluia!

Unto Christ, our heavenly King, Alleluia!

Who endured the cross and grave, Alleluia!

Sinners to redeem and save, Alleluia!

But the pains which He endured, Alleluia!

Our salvation have procured; Alleluia!

Now above the sky He's King, Alleluia!

Where the angels ever sing, Alleluia!

Sing we to our God above, Alleluia!

Praise eternal as God's love; Alleluia!

Praise our God, ye heavenly host, Alleluia!

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Alleluia!
