Easter Weekend 2022 Recap!

We had a great Easter weekend celebrating with friends, siblings, cousins . . . lots of family!


We started with weekend of at Jacob's new home (the house where I lived until I was 10; how fun is that?) where he hosted a cookout for some of his co-workers who are nontraditional American farmers! South Africans and Mexicans that travel to America on 9-month work visas to make in one year what would take 4 years in their countries. These are hard working good folks! Our Son Jacob (blue shirt) works with these guys in Mississippi County AR….where I (Angela) is from, so naturally we cooked! Jacob has a fire wing recipe, the South Africans made their specialty on the grill, the beer was cold and we got hear about life in South Africa and Mexico.

Sharing traditions over food is the best!

We spent Saturday hanging out together and even found a basketball for a quick game.

This is the third generation of friendship . . . Bo's grandmother and Jacob's grandmother are besties and Stephanie (Bo's momma) and I are BFFs. :)

We celebrated Alan's birthday (April 22nd) and Jacob's birthday (April 26th) with Key West shrimp, Rabbit Ridge Farms chicken, and cake . . . lots of cake!

Family gathered around a dining table in a warmly lit room, sharing a meal and posing for a group photo

But the main (and best) reason for the visit was our annual trip to my home church at Blytheville Methodist Church for Easter service.
