Hope you all had a wonderful Easter. We did. It wasn't in a traditional way at all, but we enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. Usually we are in Ohio for Easter, this year we were here at home. The kids had only Friday, Saturday and Sunday off from school with this year round school schedule; it didn't allow us enough time to make the trip to Ohio unless we just stayed one day (not long enough to justify 9+hours each way). So, when we track out next week, we will visit Ohio over that break.
We woke this morning and got ready for church. Keith suggested photos before we left, but I wanted to leave a few minutes early to beat the crowd and get a good seat and suggested we take photos after. Bad idea! By the time we got home, the kids had crab duty (Sunday is change the crabs water day) and everyone went their own way before we could take pictures! Anyway, back to church: it was wonderful. The music was so upbeat and celebratory, the message was great, and yes, it was very crowded. Afterward, we went to lunch, just as we do every week after church. I didn't cook a traditional dinner at all. In fact, dinner plans were for tacos per Kendall's request.

This afternoon, we hung out together, read the paper, threw the football around, did a bit of laundry, and Kendall and I made dessert for later. I got a recipe from my mother in law years ago (for Chocolate Lush) and thats what we made. Kendall LOVES to cook! At 4pm, we went to a friends house for dessert and an easter egg hunt. Six families were there, the older kids (teens) hid the plastic eggs for the younger kids and then they hunted for them. The adults visited with each other, played games in the backyard with the kids and sampled everyones dessert creations. It ended up being 7:30 before we got home, so I was able to talk Kendall out of tacos for dinner, promising to make them Monday night, and we had sandwiches instead. You can call me short order wonder as I made: turkey and cheese for Kendall, tuna for Justin, fried egg for Keith and bologna and lettuce for myself.
Now, for the main reason I am blogging tonight. Kendall was on the phone with Grandma Woolery (hi honey grandma) after church. I notice her dress as she is walking around the family room talking. I start dying laughing! The TAG is hanging from the arm pit of the dress!!! When we put it on this morning, I wasn't sure it was going to match the cardigan she had, and it was too cold to wear a sleeveless dress without something on her arms, so I asked her to wait before she cut the tag out til I could see it with the cardigan...I forgot all about the tag and the poor child wore that dress with the tag hanging in her armpit all morning, through lunch, through cleaning her crab water and never said a word about it. I was so embarrassed!!! So, go back up to the picture and notice the tag hanging from her dress; can you say "whoops"?
