It would not be a holiday if we didn't have some sort of "flu" to share! This time Drew started us off with a stomach bug. So far, we have gone through three children, but still managed our yearly egg coloring, three church services, Dawsyn getting her foot washed at Holy Thursday Mass, Drew serving, Jill reading, and Shawn cantoring at the Easter Vigil, and an Easter that ended up being one of our best!
The week before Easter, we started getting "surprises" at our backdoor. Dawsyn has been really wanting a guinea pig, which Mommy was not at all happy about. However, when a guinea pig cage arrived at our backdoor a week ago, Mommy had to admit that the odds were looking in her favor!
The next day we got bedding, followed by a water bottle, food, and hay! Mommy insisted that the only animal the Easter Bunny was allowed to bring was a stuffed one! Mommy almost thought she got her wish when the kids uncovered the cage on Easter morning and there were 5 little stuffed Webkinz hamsters!!! However, there was also a clue that led to an entire scavengar hunt around the house, resulting in two little guinea pigs!
Mommy's next suggestion was guinea bacon for Easter dinner, but alas, she was over-ruled!
So, we now have two additions to our family. Fudge and Rambunctious. Yeah--Mommy didnt' choose the names either!!!
