It felt good to celebrate Easter yesterday. We stayed pretty low key throughout the Holy Triduum. Mike and I took turns going over to St. Agnes without the kids (or at least the boys) so that we were able to take in mass, adoration, and the Stations of the Cross. Holy Saturday we had a brunch with our family friends in North St. Paul and colored easter eggs. On Saturday, we spent the evening with family at Grandpa's and had a fun time with cousins. Sunday morning we went to an earlier mass and then met friends at a restaurant which was very tasty and I think I especially appreciated the less clean up and meal prep! After lunch, Uncle Travis joined us back home with Joseph and we hung out and chatted for a couple hours. It was all very relaxing and enjoyable. I only really got pictures of the kids finding their Easter baskets - I haven't been taking pictures as much lately. I guess life gets busy. I sewed up these little baskets this past week and then on Good Friday, Mike and I got some things for the kids before we headed over to Planned Parenthood for the prayer vigil. We are now looking forward to Divine Mercy Sunday coming up this next weekend. We are hoping to make a trek out to La Cross like we did last year. And hopefully the weather warms up a bit.
