big easter weekend

first i told rodney of my plans to quit my job and become a fulltime writer. he appologized sincerly and told me i'd have to put off my big plans for another 20-30 years. i understood. on the upside he said he'd put me a desk in the garage and i can have at it on the weekends. in between soccer games, church, sunday school, cleaning, laundry, family functions, and other outings. . . of course. of course.


my side of the family did our easter on saturday because the weather was supposed to be more agreeable that day than on sunday and it was. it was nice. plus a majority of the unwed dads w/ kids were going to have their kid(s) on saturday not sunday. (complicated) we headed to the park and had a good-ol' picnic and egg hunt. it wasn't until later that night that i realized that i had one neice missing who should have been there. her excuse. . . she's 15 and too cool to hang out with us.


sunday, was rodney's side of the family easter at aunt lupe's. the food was supurb! my favorites from my mother in law include pea salad and homemade macaroni and cheese.

finally, easter didn't just bring celebration of the Lord's coming; it also brought tobias' walking! he's now officially a part-time walker. he'll do it if the mood stricks him right but if he is the least bit unsatified it's straight to the floor on all fours. he needs practice still. but that's ok. we've got time.
