Easter

Oh, yes, a week later I am finally getting around to showing you some Easter pictures. First, the celebration at the Country Club. Nini and Poppy are longtime members of the Eastern Shore Yacht and Country Club, and hosted us and the Ben Sadtler's (Steve's brother and family) for the annual Easter Egg Hunt there. The weather was windy and cold - but the kids did not seem to mind a bit. There were bouncies:







...in addition to the main event, the mad candy scramble. Is everyone ready?




That is Stephanie, Ben and Nini, waiting for the madness to begin. Here is a small sample of what ensued:




And here they are sorting out the booty afterwords:


While the adults tried to stay warm:


(Some of the Williams' clan there - longtime Eastern Shore family friends.)

And I suppose the day would not have been complete without a photo with the big rabbit:






On Sunday, we went to the early service, and the boys and I joined the church we have been attending, Franktown United Methodist. We haven't been attending very long, but we are really comfortable there, and it seems like a good fit for the whole family. Steve is, as the pastor described him, a dedicated Presbyterian, and decided not to join. More accurately, Steve is a free-roaming, liberal Quaker type Christian, and won't be tied down! Apperently, I am the traditionalist in the family.

Hope your Easter was as full and as fullfilling!
