We were all together,(thank you my beautiful children and husband,son-in-law and grands...)and enjoyed a peaceful, sunny, "delicious" day at the HomeFront Corp. We even had a few hours with the lovely Becahawkette...Even Bun managed a wee "smile" ...I love you all and am so grateful to God for my abundant blessings.<BR/>We also managed to see T and Princess for a few minutes. Both are as lovely as spring tulips (my favorite flowers)...Blessings to all during this most holy season of the Christian church...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-40776223628126965492008-03-24T14:52:00.000-05:002008-03-24T14:52:00.000-05:00Happy Easter to the Homefront Corp. crew!!

I can barely manage to get my two and myself out, much less clean and dressed to the nines. Good for you! I love the Easter Vigil, too, but I was too scared to attempt it. Now I really feel foolish, after seeing what you managed.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487791937532979173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-86151474669098873342008-03-24T12:56:00.000-05:002008-03-24T12:56:00.000-05:00I love Easter Vigil and wished I had been able to ...I love Easter Vigil and wished I had been able to be in the choir for it this year. It is my Most Favorite Mass of the year, hands down.<BR/>The kids are adorable. Love the little newsboy!<BR/>Little Brother was sad that Big Brother's suit (from First Communion) was still too big for him, but we did manage to dig up a sport jacket for him to wear with his khakis and tie, so he was quite the little GQ thing, even with the stray Peeps sugar on his collar.Barb Szyszkiewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00329184613713551475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-34535612333115163392008-03-24T09:50:00.000-05:002008-03-24T09:50:00.000-05:00Your children are beautiful.

I have only been once and it was moving, but not like yours. I miss bells. Our priest has chosen to stop the bells at the consecration so we can "experience the beauty of silence" or some hogwash. I miss them. And how on earth did you manage to sing in the choir with Bun?nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06605426195521274662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-19400838339453211762008-03-24T09:04:00.000-05:002008-03-24T09:04:00.000-05:00Happy Easter to everyone at HomeFront Corp!!The hu...Happy Easter to everyone at HomeFront Corp!!<BR/><BR/>The huddled masses look so adorable in their Easter finest.

Last night, one of the other women that was received into the Church last year and I were hostesses for a reception following the Mass. It was almost surreal to imagine that it was us a year ago, and it was so great to see everyone afterwards who had just become Catholic. What a blessing!Angie @ Many Little Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13846708503551936348noreply@blogger.com
