celebrating the risen Savior!

Easter is truly one of my favorite celebrations of the year! I absolutely LOVE sharing in the joy and excitement that comes on Sunday morning knowing that Christ has risen! We serve a glorious God and a living Savior!!

Our amazing Easter weekend began when some of my family came to visit us. My parents, aunt and cousin came to see our new home and we had a great time!

(my parents, my girls, Aunt Joyce and Lacie)

Easter morning...

On Sunday afternoon, we spent time at my Grandparent's house. The girls were able to have an egg hunt...

the story behind the blog name...

As with most unusual things around our house, our precious kiddos are to blame. Because I tend to think flip flops are a must in any girl's wardrobe, both the girls wore them quite a bit when they were younger - and still do!

Because "flip flops" seems to be challenging for a toddler to say, both girls came up with their own name for them. For Addie, they were called "ship shops" and Ellee, "pop pops." When Lee and I are feeling very ambitious, we (jokingly)talk about opening a children's shoe store one day with the name "Ship Shops & Pop Pops." Because we all know that will NEVER happen, we hated to see such a cute name go to waste. So there you have it - the explanation behind the peculiar name!
