We did Easter Sunday kinds of things today. We went to an Easter egg hunt at church and then attended Easter services. Afterwards we came home to rest up from the trip, except for Mom who cooked up a nice Easter dinner for us. Other than that, Mom spent most of the rest of the day watching college basketball games. Apparently there’s some sort of tournament going on. I spent most of my time catching up on e-mail and other web related tasks, and looking through the pile of photos from the trip.
Corwin and Charles enjoyed the Easter egg hunt. It was inside, because it wasn’t a particularly pleasant day out. They gathered the children together and then announced “you can go look now”. The children exploded out of the room like a swarm of locusts. The turnout wasn’t as high as expected so there were a lot of eggs and the limit was set at 20 eggs / child. The older kids hit the limit within a minute and then argued on and off over who hit it first. Charles required a bit of guidance to find his limit but he did find quite a few on his own. Alice was too young to participate, although she did look fetching in her Sunday dress.

As one of the perks of her new job, how many tickets will Susan have for Saturday’s game?
I asked Mom about that and she just chuckled.
The coach and one of the players were at church last week. The pastor announced it but I didn’t recognize the names until Mom explained it to me later.
