Happy Easter!!!

Easter is a Glorious time of year and I have always loved it.. A rebirth, the forgiveness of sins and the new life HE has given us...
The Sparrows that have nested above my window had chicks that hatched yesturday and chirp for food early in the morning.. ITs awesome..

Here is a fun old shot i took...
I have tons more with eggs and stuff.. I will try and dig em out today as the surf isn't that good nor is the sun..
Yesturday was a GLORIOUS day... SO AWESOME with a kayak tour to Seal Rock, Surf pumping the sun shining and chatting up with my friends at the pub for dinner..

Life is good...
