Easter




This year, we spent Easter in Dallas. Usually we go down to Kyle to celebrate with my side of the family but due to me being so pregnant- we decided to stick around Dallas. I went ahead and invited Ramon's side of the family to our house. They're not so big on having a big Easter dinner so I thought it would be nice to share that tradition with them. So we went to Easter Mass at St. Thomas (love that church- just wish it wasn't so far away) at 9:00. We had to get there early to get a seat. Man! It was packed! My kids looked so cute- if I do say so myself! Trying to listen to the message was hard, though, Diego is just so active. Going to chuch is important to us- but our little man just makes it so difficult. We have GOT to work on it! We came home and I got started on the meal- ham, sweet yams, green beans and yummy salad. My in-laws came over with some of my nephews and nieces and Ramon's older sister, Lili came. After eating we had the egg hunt, which lasted oh, about 2 minutes. As the kids get older, they just get faster at the egg hunt. Probably has something to do with the fact that there were several "Golden Eggs" filled with money.
Check out the pics--- a little story about Diego's outfit. He helps his daddy get ready for work every morning and had been asking Ramon for a tie. "Como Papi"- like Daddy! So when he saw that I had a tie for him- he was soooo excited to look just like his daddy. So sweet!
