The students of Madonna High School has once again sponsored an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids on April 4th at the Rectory backyard. We came ion 3 minutes late from the scheduled start so they were not able to participate. Some of the Moms and kids gave them some candies though.
We did not stay very long there so we visited my father-in-law. I did some cleaning while my kids bond with Dad. He told us that his younger sister is coming from Ohio so I straightened his house a little bit. My sister in law does most of the house keeping at Dad ever since he got some sort of dementia.Then we came home and colored some eggs. The kids always look forward to this activity at home during Easter. If you want to save more for Easter projects and other upcoming holidays, you can get some coupons to use online. It is always good to find coupons before going on a shopping trip because it an really save you big bucks.
The "Easter Bunny" left each of them an Easter basket filled with goodies on Sunday.
After I fried the lumpia we went and celebrated with the whole family.

Here's Aunt Peg, they came down from Ohio to celebrate Easter with us. Gracie showing her prize to be claimed. My SIL and NIL prepared so many eggs with candies, prizes, and money.

The kids had a lot of fun mingling and playing with the other kids. I can tell that Dad was very happy having all the people he love gathered together on this special occasion.
I thank God for giving us the opportunity to be with the whole family. It is always nice to catch with what everybody is up to. Because of busy schedules, we rarely see each other even though we live close. Dad is our main magnet to be together. Even though Dad think it would be his last for every occasion, I feel like God continues to bless him more time with us because he is doing a purpose for all of us. I will be looking forward for the next coming Easters with Dad still with us.
