easter weekend

I was so looking forward to this weekend after quite the long week.


We went to Ro & Pat's on Saturday, late afternoon, to join them and Pat's parents, sister, future brother-in-law for dinner. It was g-o-o-o-o-d. Honey baked ham, sweet potatoes with marshmallows, mashed potatoes, green beans with almonds, and a sweet sauce for the ham. I love holiday food.
GG was festive for her very first Easter in her bunny onsie and sweet yellow sunhat:

Sunday was sunny, but cool.
Daisy found another place to rest herself:

And I went walking with Ro at the state park... something we haven't done in months!


It was really nice, and felt damn good to get those muscles working again. She was going to bring GG, but the poor girl was worn out from all her visitors, and it was a little too chilly with the wind. Next time.

The rest of Sunday was lazy...



Which was exactly what I wanted and needed.
We did make our own ham for dinner... with plenty of leftovers! We'll be having ham in everything this week.

And just for fun, I played around with the picture from friday on the "LolBuilder" to make this:


After a great weekend, it is now back to work in a big way. Super overdue letters I have to type, bios I have to finish to be put into packets tomorrow, intern applications to sort through, and tons of emails I need to update. Bah.
