Easter

Elias and Maia with their plunder. Notice lots of candy bars... I managed to hide one well enough that they couldn't find it, so I got to eat it!


Some of the pretty eggs, painted by E&M, tiny speckled ones were not stolen from some poor bird's nest, quail eggs are fairly common here.


"Melissa & Daniel Thomas", an artwork by Daniel Thomas:


Daniel and I got to make Easter dinner: beef roast with cabbage and carrots, mashed potatoes and gravy, deviled eggs and ice cream with strawberry silt for dessert.


We also sang, because Easter is about Jesus, not eggs!! 

Here you can see Lukas longing for Obed's friendship. Lukas is learning not to harm Obed, and just to look at him. He has not yet learned to talk with a gentle baby voice, but likes to shout at Obed. Obed is getting used to Lukas, and we think they will soon be fast friends :)


E&M made this very nice guitar from a milk box and rubberbands:
