Pipe Organ

We have a new pipe organ! It is from UOP and Jason even used it when he studied organ there years ago. For Jason's birthday we had a "Pizza and Pipes" party. A few days later Father Peter and the St. Patrick's organist, Madeline, came to see it.

My Favorite Chicks Holding Chicks

Sheet Fort in the Back Yard

Everyone is sick today. Baby's taking a nap... rest of them are watching Despicable Me... I'm working on my blog. Enjoying seeing photos of happy, healthy faces.

A couple months ago I made a sheet fort in the backyard. Vince was at the movies watching Cars3 with dad so he's not seen here.

Yes Fresca, you are cute as a button!

Time to get away from the computer! My eyes are tired...

We really don't eat that!

This isn't exactly what I had in mind when I bought these

cute chalkboard labels from etsy .

Thanks Vince, thanks alot.

Easter Sunday Celebration

Our celebration truly begins with Christ's resurrection every Sunday... Every DAY for that matter! Amen!
The boys know the Easter bunny doesn't exist, but its still fun to pretend. We don't make a big deal out of the big bunny anyways.

Here's Veronica with her first Easter basket.

The basket is the best part...

Vincent happy with his night vision goggles!

Zack all ready for Mass.

My little diva on her bed munching on chocolate for breakfast.

Veronica dolled up for church!

Here are the kids after Mass at St. Patrick's.

Its really hard to get all four of them looking towards the camera with a happy face!

My handsome boys!

Veronica and Mommy.

We had Easter lunch at our house.

Jason's idea... Easter egg wine bottle stopper for a chicken-labeled bottle.

The egg hunt begins!

Maya, her mom and my cousin Jeff were here as well.

A good one of Linda Paz and Veronica.

Francesca scored lots of candy... trouble is brewing.

Easter Egg Dyeing

Saturday we dyed our eggs. Most were store bought white eggs but we tried a few of our farm fresh brown eggs. I liked the way those turned out! The butterfly egg was a brown one and is dedicated to Gramma Cathy :)

For part of the time, Veronica was content chewing on an egg dipper.

Fresca enjoyed her first time coloring eggs.

Her hands got very green and yellow as well! Each time she dyed an egg she peeled it immediately. She ate one and the other two peeled eggs ended up back in the dye!

The boys had an egg hunt when their eggs were done drying.
