It was a wonderful weekend, celebrating Easter with the family.  It was great seeing both sides of the family and remembering why were are here on Earth. Easter is a time of celebration, a Holy Day,  celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Furthermore, we came together as a family as we do every year. Like most years, we miss those in our family who are unable to make it back, but pray for you and your family.  Our Love and Smiles, come your way!

So as with every year we get together, we crack eggs(hard boiled eggs that is). Although, some individuals, who we will leave un-named, like to sneak in on of Mom’s glass eggs she has lying around the house in hopes to be a champion!  It is a great feeling passing along traditions to your family, ones in which I have grown up with. It is amazing to watch them enjoy it as much as I do:)

Nothing like the Leah challenging Great-Grandma and Cele with Grandma! The girls also say don’t forget the cake that Lola made too:)

I thank the Lord everyday for the gifts He has given us and a loving family here on Earth. It was and will continue to be a day of remembrance.

With that, I leave you with this to ponder.

Life! Ya gotta Love it!

“Yes, I believe that the world and my life are not

the product of chance, but of eternal Reason and

eternal Love, they are created by Almighty God.

Yes, I believe that in Jesus Christ … the face of

God has been revealed; that in him, God is

present in our midst, he unites us and leads us

towards our goal, towards eternal Love.”

—Pope Benedict XVI, Homily at Easter Vigil Mass, March 22, 2008
