Easter Blessings

Was it just me, or did Lent just fly right by?  Holy Week was crazy busy. Not only did we have our regular schedule of homeschooling and driving Olivia to and from school, but I had choir rehearsals  and sang during the Triduum.  Ben served as an altar boy both Good Friday and Easter morning.  Easter, itself, was a lovely day.  We invited good friends to share our meal and day with us.  Unfortunately, I did not take many photos. I didn't even get a photo of everyone in their Easter best because I had to leave the house for Easter Vigil choir rehearsal before everyone was dressed.  Despite the craziness, we had a wonderful and blessed week.

Katerina was in charge of the annual bunny cake.  This year she created "Maestro Bunny" complete with conducting baton.

The start of the Great Easter Egg Hunt (just ignore the goofball standing inside the doorway.  I wasn't able to photoshop her out :) )

It's a tad difficult to see in this photo, but Katerina surprised Ben with a glitter bomb egg.

So much sugar

Just in time for Easter my daffodils began to bloom

along with my poppies

Alleluia, He is risen!  He is risen, indeed!
