Eggcellent Easter

My family had alot to be thankful for this Easter; my Uncle Steve (my mom's brother) survived his brain surgery on Friday. They removed the 2 golf ball sized tumors and are going to be able to start treatment soon. Prayers answered!

On Easter Sunday Rustin and I had a yummy breakfast and then went to Mass at St. Anthony's but it was so full we ended up having to stand in the hallway. After almost an hour my feet couldn't take the standing and Rustin couldn't take the woman screaming at her son in Spanish. So we drove out to Uncle Wayne's in Helotes. Everyone came out (including a HUGE snake...I'm not sure how big/what kind but a snake none the less)and we had a great time with lots of yummy food, including smoked beer bread (the oven wasn't working so I decided to bake the bread in the smoker) and the little ones got a chance to hunt eggs.

On the drive home we realized that this time next year we'll be celebrating the life and death of Jesus and sharing family traditions with our little one. What a blessing!
