The Easter Vigil is my absolute favorite mass of the year.<br /><br />LOL at your description of your Monday Morning attire. Quite a contrast to your fancy dress up on Easter. :)<br /><br />My mother has the most beautiful Azaleas, and swears it is because of her coffee grounds.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01926937009188072257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-87778558858447675382012-04-13T12:38:14.133-06:002012-04-13T12:38:14.133-06:00This is the first year I wasn't able to make E...This is the first year I wasn't able to make Easter service because of being out of town and just getting home in time to cook. I don't like it and won't do it again. Being in service on Easter is a highlight I don't want to miss!<br /><br />Having a 4 day weekend is such a joy!Jerraleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04303751802364926617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-76732084110417531142012-04-13T11:55:23.118-06:002012-04-13T11:55:23.118-06:00We didn't attend church this year.

Here in Oregon though I didn't notice very many people who entered into the season with bright, happy colors and new dresses. It's sort of amusing to me. I personally didn't wear a new dress or anything like that (I favor skirts or slacks, actually) but my kids were all in Easter clothes. It's just kind of...interesting to think about.<br /><br />Glad you had such a wonderful Easter holiday!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-5264510470471249922012-04-13T08:54:38.587-06:002012-04-13T08:54:38.587-06:00I'm so happy that you could take that time off...I'm so happy that you could take that time off from your second family.

I don't want to miss out on anything.
