Easter 2009

We began the Easter weekend with a day off for everyone... even Dad was home, off and on, on Good Friday. That was nice.

On Saturday, the Easter Bunny was BUSY making impulse buys at Walgreens. We also colored eggs before church. That night, we all attended Easter Vigil Mass at St. Patrick of Merna. Max was fantastic through the 3-hour service. He held a candle and tried hard to follow along in the program. Absolutely no foul words through the entire Mass (for anyone, but especially Max). Perhaps an exorcism? I just love the Easter Vigil, despite it's length.

Party boy Max didn't want to go to sleep when we returned. That meant we went to sleep and Mom needed to wake back up at 2:30 to make sure the Easter Bunny had arrived.

Max went around the house saying, "Happy Easter Bunny!" on Sunday morning. We had our typical pancakes and bacon. Then, at around 1, we had a ham dinner. After that, we all crashed. Now, at about 6:15, Scott and I hear Tony Horton calling us to, "Bring It." My heels finally don't ache, and I think I might be ready after my day o' rest.

Great weather, good times. Enjoy the photos.
