Happy Easter!

We celebrated Easter yesterday in the sub zero climate here in St. Paul. The Pelletier's started the day by going to 9:30 mass at Assumption. The church was decorated with beautiful flowers. Emily was her very social self, she walked around before mass started smelling all the flowers on the altar. Both she and Louie were very good at church.

After church, we came straight home to get ready for our Easter celebration with the Tapio's. Grandma and Papa made it back from Florida just in time for dinner. The rolled in at 3:30pm. Emily was very excited to finally see Papa. Everytime the phone rings lately, she looks around and says "Papa!" We had a delicious dinner. Emily went outside with her cousin Billy and walked her doggie and played with her new pinwheel. She had one last year too, but someone stole it with the urn of flowers in the middle of the night. I found a new one at the Family Dollar in Cocoa Beach! She loves her pinwheel.

The Easter bunny came on Sunday morning. I tried to get a picture both kids with their baskets, not a chance. There was NO way Emily was going to sit still for that one. This is the only picture we were able to take of her yesterday. Louie loved his basket and looked like such a little man in his sweater vest. He was ready to head off to junior high! He has really been hamming it up lately whenever there is a camera around!

The bubbles were the favorite in the Easter baskets this year, along with Curious George. He's also from the Family Dollar in Cocoa Beach. (The Family Dollar was a good walking destination there, we (I) got lots of good stuff there.)
