My little creative one

So, I had to run into the city the other day for several errands, meaning that I would be gone for several hours.  When I got home I was greeted by my precious little ones and this is what Thea was wearing.  Now, for those of you who don't know how Thea dresses, she can be quite creative.

This afternoon's ensemble was made up of Zoe's pajamas (several pairs layered and a couple of sizes too small) and a special little spring cap.  Otherwise known to us mundane dressers as underwear.  

When I saw Thea I said "Wow Thea, what a nice outfit".  She answered nonchalantly "Fanks Mom" and ran off.

Paschal picnic

We have three great picnics a year at our church.  We have picnics on Pascha, following the Agape Vespers with an egg hunt; one on Memorial day and another on Labor day.   They have been a wonderful blessing for our parish.  We have all enjoyed getting together to fellowship and also we always have visitors.  

Here are a couple of pics of the girls on Sunday morning (yes, after having been up all night) with their pascha baskets and then hunting eggs.  Why don't they have circles under their eyes like I do?  :)

We ask for your prayers!

Our parish, St. Maximus,  recently made an offer on some property that we have been eyeing for awhile.  The owner just lowered the price and so we made an offer.  There is an offer ahead of us and so we are going to do an Akathist this evening to the Mother of our Lord and pray that God's will be done in this matter and that He be glorified in all things!

Thank you!

Christ is Risen!!!

What a glorious Paschal season we are enjoying!  I pray that you all are basking in the glory of our risen Lord!
