It was a beautiful Easter day for us this past Sunday. What was supposed to be a rainy possibly stormy day turned out to be sunny, mild temps and a slight breeze that was wonderful. We were able to attend Mass without rain spoiling everyone's outfits, have Easter Egg hunts and we even had several visits from the Easter Bunny as pictured! The bunnies visited our yard Easter morning!
But the funnest part of the day was getting to spend time with family and enjoying the enthusiasm they had finding eggs, plastic ducks, swinging and running up and down the deck my husband and I are working on and blowing bubbles. The highlight was when the 'Easter Bunny' flew over the house and dropped several eggs into the backyard while the granddaughters were playing. They were amazed and astonished. That is until several eggs rained down and hit both of my daughters on the head and just missed the one year old on the deck!
Oh my, what a day. It was wonderful and beautiful. We later watched video of Pope Francis blessing everyone on Easter Sunday. I even said, "I believe Pope Francis wants to keep going doing everything he can and die with his boots on." Little did I know that in 24 hours he would do precisely that. God bless him and may he rest in peace.
