It happened and I didn't have a single piece of chocolate all day. Pick yourselves up off the floor. We do our Easter egg hunt on Saturday. Get what I'm saying? My one day moratorium ended this morning when I had a Cadbury egg for breakfast.
Jared's ham turned people's taste buds into cheering crowds that could not be tamed. Sadly my sweet onion pudding did not do the same. I feel inclined to argue that if more than three people at the table had tried it....but I digress.
We live down the street from a couple of churches and normally by nine in the morning we have cars parked up and down the street with people rushing down the sidewalk to make it to Easter services. I look forward to it for 364 days. I don't know if attendance is suffering or they added a later service but it didn't happen this year. Bummer. Phin and Liza tried to console me by pointing out every jogger, dog walker and ambulance. Not the same. I'm planning on sending a letter to a whole lot of someones as soon as I get my hands on a membership list and can perfect my forgery of the Pope's signature. Just kidding. That's not believable. I'll pick some mid ranking cardinal.
Moving on to pictures before I get blacklisted from entering those pearly gates.


















I haven't found a blacklist yet with your name on it, so you should be good for the pearly gates. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your story and the pictures. I am going to have to remember the football idea for my grandkids. They will like it. I just gave Miss A and Mr. B a hoe with their baskets. But I think hiding the goodies would be more fun.
Thanks for sharing with all of us. Happy Easter and have a great Spring!!! We are.
Happy Easter to you too! I need to get some new garden tools for Phin, that would have been a perfect Easter morning gift. Brilliant!
DeleteCute tie :)
ReplyDelete- amazing he will keep it on.
It was not by choice. Major bribery went in to getting him to keep that thing on for more than five seconds. Next year I'm super gluing it to his shirt.
DeleteAwwww you look so cute all preggo.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm no so confident these days, so that means much.
DeleteI love the picture of the baby pile. I showed it to Mark and said we must have lots more babies so that we can have a baby pile here. I'm jealous.
ReplyDeleteBaby piles are essential at family functions. Until someone realizes that someone is touching someone else's foot/hand/toy. Then it's all down hill.
DeleteI didn't know you were pregnant! Congratulations! And I almost didn't recognize Phin with his short hair. He's so handsome.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leslie. I know, he looks so much older with those curls gone. I don't know how I feel about it yet...
DeleteWow! Phin is growing so fast!
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! Looks like a super-fun Easter!
Congrats on your impending little one!
