School?? Hmmm....what is that?

Sunday, April 8 - A Day's End

It's almost the end of an Easter Day. We had a nice day today. We slept late, wups....had to rush for church. Enjoyed the time at church. Hubby and the girls did most of the picking up for me this morning, also! My sister-in-law came over w/all the food for the day! That was a nice treat. My husband is the oldest of 6 kids, only one girl in the mix. She isn't married and doesn't have her own place, so usually the holiday dinners are our responsibility. It was nice to have someone do much of the work this time. Although I helped get things ready, it was great to not have to do any of the pre-planning and shopping! It was a delicious dinner. A marvelous salad...

Spinach leaves
Sliced strawberries
Crisp bacon
chopped walnuts
Red onion

The dressing was
1C mayo
1/4 cup Rasberry vinegar
1/2 cup sugar

Who would've thought strawberries and onions would go together..but was absolutely yummy!!!! Even my oldest liked it, less the strawberries due to allergies.

I got my dh to have the men to do the vast majority of cleaning up. Of course some of them helped for a couple of minutes then went outside. Just like these men!

Everyone has now left and we are going to have a nice family movie w/Charlottes Web and then the kids will be off to bed!

I hope you all had a wonderful day as well! God Bless. Julie

That is so funny you mentioned Charlotte's Web. I just bought the DVD for the girls for Easter. They had seen the movie with grandma, but dh & I hadn't. I cried, of course, when Charlotte died. (I did that too when I read the book to the girls when they were much younger). I really liked the move though. Lots of good lessons! DH appreciated just having something different to watch from our usual pick. :)
