Happy Easter!

We were blessed with a beautiful, wet (desert people understand this) and cloudy Easter morning. 

Bubeaner, dressed up, at Aunt Pau's 
before going out for Easter brunch. 

We were up and ready for the 730 mass without a problem.  And Bubeaner looked adorable in his little Easter outfit.  The church was a just a little more full than normal, but we were still able to sit on our bench.  Bubeaner was even awake for most of the service. YAY!  And he got a blessing during communion.  We love being able to share our faith through these holy days with Bubeaner.  We currently read books about the saints and the order of the mass but have not found a good children's Bible.  I have such great memories of reading it with his Aunt Lari when she was little.  Our night time prayer routine was cute too; she had to give thanks and pray for every person AND thing in her life individually.  It was good but just made for a long, long prayer.  I can't wait to share that with Bubeaner.

Don't my boys look adorable?

He did so well during mass today that we will attempt to actually sit in the sanctuary next Sunday.  Let's hope we don't have a repeat of mass on Thursday when he decided to exercise his very healthy lungs.  In his defense, the mass lasted almost 3 hours.

We love the Beginner's Bible. We have both the toddler version and the full one.
Here's how prayer time goes at our house: Dear God, Thank you for Diego, Batman, Daddy, Peter, Drake, Wendy, continuing list of anyone they know, on to whatever they can see, start repeating what was said earlier. AMEN
It's very hard to keep a straight face.
