Happy Easter

It's a chilly morning and the kids are wolfing down their Easter candy. For a few days this week Micci hated the Easter bunny because Mic was being impatient. But after meeting the Easter Bunny at HEB--he warmed up to him.

We're planning a non-traditional Easter Dinner---instead of HAM--we're having Lasagna. I love Ham but--with so few of us and a certain picky eater--it's not worth it. Lasagna is equally special since it can be expensive to make (Esp. when I make it) and it's terrific as a left over.

Both kids were very excited to see their Easter baskets--full of little gifties and candy. Last night we colored eggs--the kids were finally old enough to participate in the process and NO MESSES were made--yippee!!

Funny that this being a celebration of spring* and it's cold and wet and freezing! I fel for the poor blue bonnets. Of course this being Texas by Tuesday it'll be in the 80s. Then soon completely intolerable and I'll be envying Phisto in Denver.

It is nice though to spend Easter with Phil while his going through this rough time. Right now he's showing the kids all of his pictures from his computer---they totally love seeing pictures of themselves--Mic is fascinated by Phil's extensive Lego collection.

Happy Easter and keep WARM!

* Although I am a Christian I don't place much emphasis on Christ's death and resurrection, i.e. the traditional Christian Easter celebration. It's my personal belief that it's more important to focus on how Christ LIVES his life instead of how he LEFT his life. After there is no hope in following Christ in his death and resurrection if we do not follow in his life work. However I do give pause for his pain and suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane--without it our good works would be pointless--but living a Christ-like life is OUR job as his taking on our sins is HIS job. And we should focus on our job.
