Today was Easter and we started out with an Easter Egg hunt at Mem and Grandfathers with the kids and the cousins. Last night Andy caught us filling the Easter Eggs. He seemed okay about it even shouting that he knew it. However, when he went upstairs he was sobbing about it. Tara and I both comforted him and he eventually got to sleep. He didn’t say anything more about it today when he was tearing around the house looking for eggs. The kids had a nice egg hunt and then we had breakfast. We went to 11 am Mass over at Saint Anthony’s and then came home and had a nice lunch.
We relaxed for the afternoon and then watched Better Nate than Ever for a movie tonight. Andy really enjoyed that movie and it was cute. I had only gotten to see half of it one night with him and he told me later that he really enjoyed it. I think my parents also enjoyed it. Andy has a good taste in movies overall.
Tonight we went to La Salette Shrine to see the lights and also to participate in a prayer service with the school. We gathered at the Nativity scene and had the service. Then we walked around the grounds to see the lights. They are as beautiful as they always are and the night was mild so it was nice to walk around and check them out.
We also took a walk around inside the nativity scene collection. They have so many of them and they are beautiful. So many countries and materials. Amazing.
After looking at the nativity sets we walked around the little pond that has the nativity alphabet. We try and get a shot on the far end of the pond to capture all the lights behind us. My phone has a cracked front camera so every photo I take with it has weird light effects. It was even worse when there is nothing but a bunch of lights. I get crazy lens flares. I used Allison’s phone for the full family selfie.
