Easter weekend

We really didn't have any plans for this weekend...other than going to Sunrise Service on Easter. But...things happen and two last minute invitations came along and made for a fun weekend. Saturday night we ended up joining the Lawson's for dinner at Meg O'Malleys.
Jordan's birthday is next week...and they were celebrating early. Since John is her Godfather...we always try to remember her birthday in some way...and enjoyed having dinner with her.
Then we got up at 5:30am to get ready for the sunrise mass. No mass in Melbourne Beach this year...so we headed up to Canova Beach for Holy Name's mass.
From the road you might be fooled into thinking there weren't that many people in attendance...but if you happened to take a peek down at the beach there were thousands of people. This picture is a little blurry (I didn't take it...hahaa)but there were people sitting from the edge of the water all the way to the dune line.. up and down from Canova Beach Park.(...some of the people near the water got wet as the tide started coming in.)
Yesterday we got a call from Maureen Hogg...her daughter Elaine and Mrs. Fiore decided we needed to revive the Easter morning after mass brunch. For years the Spino family hosted it...until health issues interfered. Last year was the first time there was NO brunch...this year it was just like old times, only at the Hogg's. Good food, good friends and just like one big happy family.This is one of the few pictures I took...of Beth Spino and John. I didn't take too many photos I was too busy talking...haha John was getting over a bad cold...so we didn't stay too long...but long enough to sneak a look at some of the hidden Easter eggs.

Happy Easter!
