Easter Weekend - March 21st thru 23rd

Realizing that it's been over a month since the celebrated of the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ, I must say that the pictures we took from the weekend's celebrations were just too cute not to share with you. You'll notice that Daddy is not included in any of the pictures. Well, that is because unfortnately he had been working a shut-down that continued through the entire weekend, including Easter Sunday. The kids and Mommy celebrated as best we could, though, by: opening the baskets the Easter Bunny brought for the kids, sharing Easter-goodie bags with the kids from our compound (some of which didn't celebrate Easter but were grateful either way), enjoying Easter brunch with friends at the Ramada hotel's restaurant (which was also celebrating Mother's Day for all of the Middle Eastern community), participating in an Easter egg hunt at a friend's villa (at which Gabrielle found one of the golden eggs that was filled with money - in addition to the money already included in her basket), midnight Mass for Gabrielle and Mommy at the new church (as Daddy and Nick stayed home asleep), swimming at Alfardan Garden I's compound pool, and a sighting of the proverbial "lamb" in the back of some local's pick up truck! Whew!!! You think the kids were tired at the end of it all? Just think of how Mommy felt!!!! LOL! Again - Enjoy the pics!
