happy easter everone. i am off to work soon dealing with pizza deloivery after 3pm
We just got done with family lunch and then the Easter egg hunt.
Sunrise service came way too early. A nap is in my plans for the afternoon.
Happy Easter yall.
Oh, and harbor freight has a 25 off coupon for today.
11AM mass and immediate family Easter egg hunt complete, packing the car for 2.5 hour drive to larger family gathering. Bout to get our eats on!
Church this morning followed by some tasty pig meat. No grands or children so it's just SWMBO. I'm working up the motivation to go clean up in the garage.
9:00 Mass, flew three flights from the back seat to get recertified; grilled lamb chops & fixings with MIL & her neighbor who has no family nearby.
Good day so far.
6 AM Sunrise service, begins outdoors with kindling of the fire brazier, from which the Paschal candle is lit, from which all of our individual candles lit, processing by candle light into the totally darkened church, then into the darkened nave. As each portion of the service is completed, more lights are faded on until, by 7:05, the nave is fully lighted, and the Sun is streaming full through the massive stained glass panel behind the High Alter. Then we all file out to the greathall for breakfast with Mimosas, champagne, and wine. My church is just cool like that

We're Episcopalian too. Caught the early service, stayed for the brunch. Came home, took a nap, wired the new XM receiver in the old truck, got the clearance lights on the cab working. Now I'm having a glass of Georgia-made blueberry wine and watching it rain outside the open door and windows.
Had the big family Easter at our place with too much food and a sweet egg hunt. The party moved outside to enjoy the day and all the neighborhood kits showed up to play for a few hours. Just sitting down with a beer now that everyone headed home. Happy Easter!
....and my wife just showed me the collection of dead winged termites in our laundry room. In the center of the house. Happy Easter, they are risen! Crap.
I cruised the car and let my kids pick out there own easter candy. Then had nacho's. Family was in maryland visiting extended family
We're not religious, but we celebrate the Vernal Equinox, which was last week (not a coincidence). I smoked and pulled a 5-pound pork shoulder and roasted a couple chickens; DW baked some delicious braided danish-type things, and I made about 5 pounds of potato salad. We also dyed Ishtar eggs. We had about half of my extended family over for a visit. It was even pretty fun, because we don't see some of them very often.
Missed mass because I'm an idiot and didn't read the churches webpage where they clearly stated that there was no 7:15PM mass on Easter. We were only going to that one because wifey had to work.
Otherwise it was a pretty good day though. Saw family, had good food. Played guitar.
Nice early service with the family. Prime rib for dinner! Happy Easter!
Went to church for the first time in many years. Was reminded of the general creepiness I find in them, will work at not returning until I'm much older.
Drove out to moms house for an afternoon of snacking and drinking, cooking and chatting. Had an egg hunt for the kiddos and got out the golf cart for the teens to practice driving around the 300 acre farm. Patted the new foals and admired the venerable tree.
On balance it was a very good day.
