Spring Break (Day #4) EASTER

Those who attended church.

 

and those who didn't attend church today.

 

After a very loud attempt by Amelia and Ava to spy on any Easter preparation activities last night, the girls did finally get to sleep and did awake to find their Easter baskets.  Jenna didn't really know what to expect, and Andrew would have rather slept in longer.  Amelia was happy with her glitter pens, Ava with her light up slippers, Jenna with her gum and Andrew with his new Kids Clip!  Ava sang "Christ is Risen" with her cherub choir today at the 10am Mass.  Grandma and Grandpa came up to watch. We all met back at home for brunch.  We had a wonderful Easter Sunday.

Spring Break (Day 2)

Two of my very good friends came over this morning for an "Easter Party".  We dyed eggs, played, talked and had lunch.

Spring Snow

The kids are off school today.  We have 4 inches of snow, and it's still snowing!! 

Easter Egg Hunt!

Thanks to my friend Mary, we were advised that we should check out this fun Easter Egg hunt today in Germantown.  Here's Amelia before we started the hunt.  See all those eggs?  There were 30,000!

Lots of kids, lots of eggs.
