Happy Easter 2021

Easter morning with their packed baskets

Easter weekend was very much a home-bound affair. Although Saturday we went our separate ways with my driving to Colorado Springs to get my covid vaccine (the J&J, one shot!) while Marcy took Jude for his soccer match. I was bummed to miss his match but super excited to get vaccinated. Marcy got her first Pfizer shot last weekend.

My excitement turned to misery today as I woke up feeling horrible. Every muscle ached and I had no energy. I was no fun to be around and I spent the day watching tv and doing taxes. Thankfully, Marcy was 100% and had a wonderful Easter planned. She worked until late last night packing eggs for the Easter egg hunt and also filling their baskets with goodies.

Starting the Easter egg hunt

Anna is still really into the Easter egg hunt and Jude got into it after it started but said he would be ok if we skipped it next year. Marcy included poker chips this year instead of change which made it easier to put together.

Anna and Elsie leading the three-legged race

Anna and one of the neighbors put together a whole program for the afternoon that included a treasure hunt, three-legged races, an egg and spoon race, and egg tossing. I was feeling so horrible that I couldn’t really participate but everyone else had a blast. They put in a big effort and did a really nice job. As you can see it was really nice weather, in fact, it was a record hot day for April 4.
