It has been a busy few days. Kim came home Thursday night fairly late. We slept in Friday morning. Then we picked up the local grandkids and kept them the rest of Friday. Also on Friday night, the newest grandchild brought her parents to grandma and grandpa's for Easter.
We did have a scare Friday night when the TK and Jeramie were sideswiped. The other driver took off. But she was found and brought back to the scene then arrested. My daughter has some minor injuries but everyone else is okay. We are thankful for the Lord's watchful protection.
It was too rainy to cut firewood on Saturday, so those plans went out the window. We did go to the local livestock sale to buy a new Billy. We ended up with 2 new Nannies and a billy. One of the Nannies is needing to be milked, which was a little unexpected. We also came home with a little kitten. But the kitty went home with the local grandkids.
Easter Sunday, I made quiche for breakfast and we got our easter baskets. Then we went to Church. The program was well done and spiritual. Afterwards, we hurried home. Zach scattered the eggs for the kids' egg hunt and I started on dinner. Kim made the tomato cucumber and onion salad. I made Hot potato salad and put the ham in the oven. Perigrine did the leg of lamb when she got home froom work. Tats did turnip greens. TK and Jeramie did mac and cheese and Carrots. We also had a mixed berry fruit salad. All in all a yummy meal.
The kids found most of the eggs in the first hour. But they needed their aunts help to find the last few. Emerson picked quite a few Mulberries off the tree to add to the berry salad. Emerson and Dorian were sampling the Ham to make sure it was okay for everyone to eat, while we waited for the last few dishes to get done.
It was a good family filled easter and I quite enjoyed it. The grand kids and their parents all went home by 5:00pm because tomorrow is a school day and a work day. I was sorry to see them go but I am also ready to call it a night and it is only 6:22pm. But we will be getting up early so an early night is in order.
I hope your Easter was a pleasant one.
