Holy Week and Easter 2015

 A beautiful day for an egg hunt at Jonas' preschool. They made their own confetti eggs filled with seeds which the school's chickens enjoyed! :) 


A special treat with his buddy Niam.

Family footwashing on the evening of Holy Thursday. We have all come to look forward to this tradition to begin our Holy Week!


Our seder-style meal, thanks again to Shiraz Shish Kebab! This year we sat on the floor for more authenticity :)


The Walking Stations of the Cross on Good Friday. A moving and beautiful experience to share with friends and strangers alike. This was our third year to do the walk as a whole family, I hope we can keep it up!


Dyeing eggs on Saturday. We tried tie-dyeing this year!



I like the way they turned out. I thought the boys did a great job!


Saturday evening Bronius attending the Easter Vigil Mass with his friend Nathan whom he sponsored into the Church this year. We are so excited for Nathan!

And we enjoyed getting to celebrate Easter Sunday with his family who have become very special to us these past two years. We are so thankful for them!



     Thank you Stephanie for taking our picture after Mass! :)


We invited our friend's son Corbin (who is one busy Corps cadet) to Easter Sunday also, and he brought one of his Corps buddies. We loved introducing them to cascarones! I hope we did it the right way! ;) 




May the hope of our Risen Lord give us courage, compassion and purpose to live out our vocations more fully each day. Happy Easter joy to you and yours!
