Easter '09
We had a bit of a non-traditional Easter this year. Normally we wake up early in the morning, hunt for eggs outside, then we spend the afternoon with family or friends. This year was different -- but hopefully not the start of a new tradition. Since our family has been plagued with...well...some sort of plague for the past week or so, we have been quarantined. We've been falling like dominoes for 10 days now, and Bill is the only one untouched. Coughing, sneezing, wheezing...that is the sound of our family's Easter. Blech!
We still had an egg hunt for the kids, but because it was storming outside, we had it in the house. The kids still traded and sampled candy, but without the typical fervor.
Although Rhys can always be counted on to lighten the mood.
Bill and I made an Easter lunch, while the kids curled up on the couch with new books. We very much missed visiting with our extended family, but we tried to make the best of it and enjoy our quiet day.

so fun... but later Rhys was not "lightening the mood"
(after Benadryl)
It was a nice day though, aside from all of you being DeathWarmedOver. I was glad to hear from Robert since I didn't get to see him.
