Easter Sunday

Easter Sunday was an interesting mix here. It started out with Peggy coloring Easter eggs (yes, you heard that right…PEGGY). As you can see by the photos, she did a job that even the Easter Bunny would be proud of.

Around 11:00 Jessica announced she needed to go out and buy pants for her new job, manager trainee for Marble Slab Creamery, which she
was starting at 5:00 that afternoon! The panic was on. So, it being Sunday, we headed out around 1:30 to find an open store. The ONLY store we found open was Wal-Mart, so I dropped her and Craig off, stopped at a filling station to put air in my tires (and was approached by a Jehovah’s Witness), and made my way home.

Jessica calls: “there are no pants here like what I need so can you wash and try to shrink the pair in the basket?”. UGH! I washed and dried them and made my way BACK to Wal-Mart. She decided she needed a belt to hold them up so she went back into the store. What does she come out with? A NEW pair of pants. She didn’t need me to bring her the old ones after all. Ever get the urge to strangle your teenage daughter? LOL!

When Jess went in to work Craig came back to the house with me to have Easter dinner with us all. Aunt Eleanor was there, too. The dinner conversation ranged from politics, to our memories and feelings about 9/11, to some lively telling of funny stories and memories. There was a lot of laughing.

At 10:00 Craig and I went to get Jess from work. We waited for an hour in the parking lot, and Craig amused himself with my cell phone camera. Um, yeah.
