Easter Sunday

On Easter, we managed to get four kids dressed in their Sunday best and to church on time (which really means showing up 45 minutes before mass to get a seat). We did have Papa, Mimi, and Zia to help us, so they deserve a lot of credit. We attempted some photos. We tried, they won. Oh well. The boys made it through mass with minimal "be quiet and sit still or no Easter basket for you" threats. Frances took her morning nap in my arms. It was pure heaven.

After church, the kids came home to find their Easter baskets. Each boy was excited about a different item in their basket - Ferrero Rocher candy for Henry (our little old man), a Yoda keychain for John, and a Daniel Tiger book for Peter. Frances found new bloomers, sunglasses, and a sleepsack in her basket. She was most excited about her new shades, in case anyone was wondering. Later we enjoyed a delicious Easter lunch prepared by Mimi. Then it was nap time for the kids and departure time for Papa, Mimi, and Zia.
