Easter Eve 2010

This Easter has been very special for us.  For the past 7 months Brian and I have taken every Monday night to attend RCIA (Rite of Catholic Initiation for Adults). 

Our journey has been a long one…over the course of several years, and culminating in intense study the past 7 months. Our trek towards union with the Church ends tomorrow night at the Easter Vigil service! Henry will be baptized along with our final rites being taken. 

We have amazing sponsors, who have been with us every Monday night and explaining any and all questions we’ve had about the faith.

We are very excited.  This is a very special time for our family. Tomorrow ends one journey and starts another. We look forward, with great anticipation, to deepening our faith and community in the one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church!  

Happy Good Friday and Easter Weekend!

“Egg”stra special!

Dying Easter Eggs has been a several day process.  Tonight, “we” finally got to decorate our eggs.  “We” means Jackson, mom and dad. 

Henry and Charlie had to go to bed on time…and frankly, after the paint and the syrup episodes from Charlie I was not inclined to give him an egg, dye, or anything that could break easily or leave indelible marks.  

Jackson did an outstanding job painting our eggs with Washington “Ws” for the Huskies!  Go Dawgs!  More pictures to follow!
