Easter Sunday musings

Happy Easter everyone. As I wrote that I realized, for most people, Easter is simply another reason to eat way too much food AND eat chocolate.

When I was a child I do remember going to Easter Sunday services at church and loving the celebration and practice that was associated with it. Today however, it is simply another rainy day and quite cold to boot so not feeling all that celebratory. I am going to be spending it with my soon to be "family" as my son is getting married in September to a wonderful Chilean woman who has this amazing, boisterous and MAJOR celebratory family. It will be fun for sure. Lots of music, dancing and singing.......her Father has an amazing voice and supposedly, his brother and an uncle are very well known singers in South America. He regales us with this amazing stories of his uncle who, as it turns out partied with the likes of Sammy Davis, Jr., Frank Sinantra and Dean Martin...........must have been an interesting time. But, for today, we will make do with Alejandro's booming voice as he serenades us for the afternoon.

But for now, I am heading over to pick up Dear Old Dad to take him along to this celebration....I am choosing to think of it as a celebration of LIFE........young, old and everything in between.

Blessings
