Hippity-hoppity...

Now for a more detailed take on our glorious Easter holiday!!  The kids woke up bright and early (6AM!) to eat breakfast and start on their egg/gift hunt.  (That's OK...we try to make it to the 9:30AM mass, so an early wake-up is not the worst thing in the world.)  All three kids thoroughly enjoyed finding all of the spoils of the Easter Bunny, including some new posters, stuffed animals, books, and OF COURSE lots of candy.  By 8:15, they were basically bouncing off the walls as we tried to cram them into their Sunday's best.  We then enjoyed a beautiful service at church before coming home for a quick snack.

After that brief moment to catch our breaths, we headed out to Leesburg to spend the afternoon with our best pals, the McCabes.  They filled us up with the most decadent, yummy foods (including rice crispie treats AND carrot cake!!) before shooing the kids off for hours of play.  The kids were even treated to an afternoon matinee of Frozen, much to their undying delight.  It was so, so tremendous to just sit at the table, sipping copious amounts of wine, talking the hours away while the kids were doing whatever they do.  What a blessing this family will always be in our lives.  We hope you all had a wonderful holiday as well!!!
