A Good Friday

On Good Friday, we had a very nice, low key day around the house. We dyed Easter eggs with the boys, which was pretty funny. It took us a couple of hours to get everything ready, eggs boiled, cooled, dyes prepared. Then, it took the boys about 6 minutes to finish dying them all. We limited Andrew to just two eggs because, as expected, he dropped them each in a mug of dye and they broke. He didn't seem to mind though. He just kept fishing them out and redropping them back in again.


I absolutely love the way Will is looking up at Dan in this picture. It says so much about the close relationship between these two.

Will struggled being patient with his eggs(shocking, I know!) and so he kept changing the color of his about 5 times each until they all turned a lovely shade of puce! :)


It was such a great day and these are memories I will keep with me forever.
That evening, we attended 7:00 mass. I think this is my favorite mass of the year. Our church does a beautiful job of making it very solemn and reverent. I always leave feeling spiritually filled and ready for Easter!
