we had a quiet but wonderful easter sunday. we attended a beautiful church service where we were reminded in an eloquent way that the resurrection is the evidence of a man who was who he said he was.
i had to post this picture because the entire time i was taking d's picture, she was trying to rip off her bonnet and find our neighbor's dog- hoof-hoofing the entire time.
after church, we spent the rest of the day riding around the neighborhood with e on her new wheels. that's right, miss e's easter treat was her first big girl bike. she has been waiting so long and was thrilled to have her new set of wheels.
and then, to end our day we ate in my new dining room for the first time. this used to be our playroom, but when we listed the house, we converted it to its rightful purpose. the girls have missed their private play palace, but having a few months of dining room makes their mommy smile. i have always loved setting up a formal table and entertaining guests. unfortunately, this was the first, and maybe the only time this dining room will be used. (but since our house is still on the market, you never know!) it brought me great joy to serve dinner in here and was a great way to end the day. i should also mention the best part... our dinner was lovingly made by my hubby. he made lamb stuffed with goat cheese, sauteed spring veggies with lemon and mint, rice pilaf and then cheese blintzes for dessert. i have more to write on this dinner, but i'll save that for another post.

The girls look adorable! The meal sounds delish;) Happy Easter!
hey tasha! great easter pics! i've been meaning to respond to your question about the song lyrics on my blog from forever ago (shhh...i might actually update my blog one of these days!). the song "dear refuge of my weary soul" is actually an old hymn. i heard it at a worship gathering at loyola. i looked it up on itunes and only found it on a cd called "indelible grace music side b"...i've been meaning to buy it but haven't yet. apparently it's a collection of old hymns that have been set to new tunes...seems like it might be cool, i will let you know if i get it. sounds like you are all doing well..excited about your new little one! :) take care, michelle
the girls look so pretty! Great pics Tasha.
