LRL Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday was much later this year than last! I remember last year’s Easter being pretty chilly and rainy, and also the same day as the Hickory Slims show at The Village Pub. This year it was warm and sunny – the church yard was full of colorful Easter dresses and hats bobbing around while the kids scampered around picking up Easter eggs. Pascua este ano fue mas tarde que el ano pasado! Me acuerdo el ano pasado que la Pascua fue un poco fria y llovio, y tambien ese mismo dia Hickory Slims tuvo un show en el Village Pub en la tarde. Este ano estubo caluroso y soleado – el jardin de la iglesia estaba lleno de coloridos vestidos de pascua y sombreros de sol mientras los ninos corrian como locos buscando los huevitos de pascua.

Javi and I had a slow morning, Javi was studying for finals, and we got to church right before the service started (but with enough time to get a cup of coffee and a biscuit with ham from the morning breakfast!). After a beautiful service I went home with my parents to help get dinner ready while Javi returned to our house to continue studying before dinner. What a drag finals are on forced family fun! Javi y yo nos tomamos la manana con calma, Javi estudio para sus examenes finales antes de partir rumbo a la iglesia y llegamos justos para el comienzo de la ceremonia (pero con suficiente tiempo para tomar una taza de cafe y comer un biscocho son jamon en el desayuno de la iglesia). Despues de la linda ceremonia, yo fui a casa con mis papas para ayudarlos con la cena mientras Javi volvio a casa para continuar estudiando antes de la cena. Que lata que los examenes justo estuvieran en medio de la entrencion familiar forzada!

Dale and Barbara came over for dinner with Lucas, Jonas and Mia and we had a nice afternoon out on the patio before eating a huge ham, grits, biscuits, cranberry apple bake, veggie salad and carrot cake dinner. YUM. Mia sat with me at the table with her little toy puppies and had a blast showing me how to make chocolate ice cream out of vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. So tasty! She also threw some m&ms in there and had a bona fide blizzard – I definitely sat next to the right person! 🙂 Dale y Barbara vinieron a casa para la cena junto to Lucas, Jonas, y Mia y tuvimos una linda tarde sentados en la piscina antes de comernos un jamon, con grits, biscochos, tarde de cranberry y manzana, ensaladas y torta de zanahoria. DELICIOSO. Mia se sento al lado mio en la mesa con sus juguetitos y lo pasamos muy bien mientras me mostraba como hacer helado de chocolate mezclando helado de vainilla y salsa de chocolate. Muy rico! Tambien le puso unos M&Ms y se hizo un rico postre – me sente al lado de la persona correcta! 🙂

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday (alternatively, if you don’t celebrate Easter, we hope it was as beautiful of a day where you were as it was here for us!). Esperamos que todos hayan pasado una linda Pascua (alternativamente, para quienes no celebran Pascua, esperamos que hayan disfrutado del lindo dia como el que tuvimos aca en casa!)
