We attended Mass at a different church because we needed more time this morning to get ready due to it being turkey hunting season. The church had beautiful guitar music and lots of it. Although I was disappointed no one sang along except for a handful of us. What a surprise to the kids when Father stood up and announced that their would be an Easter Egg Hunt after church on the playground. The kids could hardly sit still anticipating the filled eggs. Turns out 800 eggs were distributed throughout the playground and field. Bags were handed out and it began. The kids were wild; running everywhere, laughing, screaching with excitement. What fun! Then we stopped for a quick taco lunch and got home just in time for Grace to change into barn clothes. She was picked up at 1:30 and won't be home until 5:00. Lee has a friend over for a couple of hours; Lou went turkey hunting with dad; Ray is napping. I spent a good hour reading from the Elm Creek Quilts Sampler by Jennifer Chiaverini (highly reccommended). The sun is out so I hope to take advantage of it a little bit before I need to start in with dinner plans.
