Last Friday at school, the girls had an interesting celebration. It was a belated Pi Day celebration. There was an assembly with various activities like songs, celebration of the kids who memorized the most digits of Pi and several 8th graders had the ignominious (although they probably had fun) fate of said winners from each class throwing a pie in their face. The middle school along with some saintly grandmothers made pie of which our family bought two. Both the peach and the apple were delicious.
That night, since it was a Friday in Lent, we had fish. Since we had been successful on a fishing trip the previous weekend, we ate some wonderful crappy and one confused bass. John then took Megan to the movie theater to watch Insurgent.
The next Saturday the CYO, of which Malissa and Megan are both members at church, had an Easter egg hunt followed by games and snacks. Karla and Laura took off having lots of fun and even Gabe was old enough to have fun with a little help.
Church ended up split up this weekend. Megan and I went Saturday evening while John & Malissa went Sunday morning. But either way we all enjoyed Palm Sunday. One more week until Easter!
That morning Megan had to slip in early to Church to help serve donuts at Mass which was why we had to attend Mass the evening before. One huge positive is that between the Easter egg hunt and the serving donuts Megan officially has enough community service hours for confirmation. Finally beginning to see the light at the end of that long tunnel. Just a few loose ends to tie up before next October!
Sunday evening, John & I managed to slip in a marriage prep class. Love teaching these soon to be marrieds. It is so fun to see the nervous excitement of marriage through their eyes. The kids love it because they usually get to visit Grandma and Grandpa Deters.
And today was Monday and everyone made it out of bed to catch the bus this morning. Monday morning always seems so early!
I hope that everyone had a great weekend!
