He is Risen!!

We hope you all had a lovely and blessed Easter!  Our entire Triduum was so focused and beautiful.  We especially enjoyed the services and masses at our church throughout the Holy days, and our quiet Easter celebration together was  pleasant and relaxing.

Just sharing with you today some photos from our egg coloring tradition. Our family here LOVES to color and decorate eggs. We could do it every day.  It’s also one of my favorite things to photograph.

The kids have been working really hard with their school work, and will actually be done with their formal work in just a couple of weeks.  So in preparing our hearts and minds for this Holy week, we decided to do some more lengthy study of the Stations of the Cross, and then get creative today and make a big Easter cross decoration for our Easter celebration come this Sunday.

There were really only 5 things we needed:  a very large sheet of window cling, lots of colored tissue paper, a sponge brush, some Modge Podge and a pair of scissors.
