He is risen indeed! Alleluia!
My two favorite church services are the Easter vigil and Easter morning. They just can't be beat. Mary was a bit tired for the vigil since it started around the time she's normally getting ready for bed, but she made it through the whole thing, and she seemed to really like the service Sunday morning with all the extra music and festivities.
After church, we enjoyed blintzes with blackberry compote and sausage for brunch.
Mary discovered some goodies in the Easter basket, which she seemed to like. She also wore shoes for the first time; she wasn't so sure about that part.
Some of our friends from church invited us to join them and their son and his wife for Easter dinner. That was lovely. Mary even got to hunt for Easter eggs.
I wasn't sure if she would look for eggs when there were so many other new things to check out, but she caught on quickly.
We returned home in time for a late nap and some relaxing play before a light dinner and bedtime.
