Easter

This past Easter weekend was perfect! Gary, Chelsea, Blake and I broke with tradition and went to church on Saturday night instead of Sunday morning. The service was so good and it was nice to sleep in...

We hosted Gary's side of the family for Easter dinner. Everyone pitched in to help, it made a stress free day! On the menu was fresh Spring Chinook (caught by Gary), Steamer Clams cooked in white wine, butter and garlic, appetizers, veggies, bread, dessert etc. Fantastic!

We love hosting big get togethers, especially family...



One, two, three...


love runs deep around here...

Happy Easter to you. We are in Montana with our youngest daughter and her family. Their church service was the best I have ever been to in all my years of going to church.

How nice to have a Saturday evening service. I so wish we had that option here. I love the picture where everyone is standing and holding hands for prayer. What a wonderful family you have. =O)

Love the pics of Easter. And the tease for the upcoming sales. I am really disappointed that I can't go to the sale on Saturday.
We will be joining five of our friends from our single days Beautiful Babes) in Salemtowne at Naida's house.
Love, Mom
