Postcards from the weekend
by chuckofish
Daughter #2 and famille made it to town in the driving rain on Saturday morning and then it was party central for the rest of the weekend. What fun! We didn’t get to do any driveway sittin’ or drive the miniature raptor, but the good times still rolled. We celebrated our birthdays…

We had lots of primo cousin time…The twins set a good example in church on Sunday and the prairie girls did great.
We went to the boy’s new house after church and had a fabulous time plus a gourmet lunch served up by daughter #3.


An indoor Easter egg hunt was a big hit!
(Katie’s great-grandmother–after whom she is named–made this English smocked dress, which I wore c. 1964.)
It was a super fun weekend and I am super tired! It will take me a few days to recover!

I did watch the second half of Ben Hur on Sunday night–the perfect end to a perfect weekend.
Bonus: The ensemble at church sang this on Good Friday. I cried.





Wonderful! I love Katie’s dress. I wonder where my blue one is. Did I give it to you? Happy Easter and birthday — I will talk to you soon!
It really was a wonderful Easter!
This weekend was lovely–and I am not ready for Monday!
A wonderful weekend with much to celebrate! I sure do love smocking that has lasted generations!
