Palm Sunday involves the kids coming through the sanctuary to commemorate the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. The kids get to wave their palm just as the crowds did as Jesus rode in on a donkey and scream, "Hosanna"!! I think it really helps the kids understand what was going on back in Jesus' time. It helps start the Easter traditions while still underlining the reasons why we celebrate Easter. Rocco always gets a little tense in large crowds.

Gavin normally struggles with this too but seemed to do okay with Jillian by his side. He has really been enjoying Sunday School with Jillian. He always asks me if it is Sunday yet so we can go to church. This of course makes me a very happy mommy.

This picture was so funny because he leaned forward to check and see if we were watching him.

Kiernan was causing trouble in the nursery so we picked him up early so he could help us set up the egg hunt.

Gavin and Jillian went through again at the second service.

Before the mayhem, I of course grab the boys for some photos.

And a family photo......

And the cousins........ I thought this one went much better. I set my camera on rapid fire and pick the best one. :)

Kiernan enjoying the egg hunt.

Gavin picked his favorite. A pink egg!!!

I thought the egg hunt went very well. I think next year we need to put out more eggs. There was a huge turn out and the baskets seemed a little skimpy but I think the kids had fun. Can't wait til next weekend. He have the boys again for Easter.
