Western Easter

This year was a little confusing for the kids, because we celebrated Western Easter which happens to be the same as Orthodox Palm Sunday, and then this weekend will be Orthodox Easter (Pascha). But they learned the story and enjoyed the service. And then we went to MawMaw's for dinner and the egg hunt. Very exciting stuff. We had a fun time, though truly, even though the family is all "Christian" no one really takes it to heart and actually lives in a dedicated way, so I never feel like it is a true celebration of Christ, but only the secular observation of the holiday. But as our Priest said, "It's not a matter of putting Christ in or taking Him out of something, it's a matter of putting ourselves in Christ. "

In any case, here are the photos of the day.
