Happy Easter to all! Here's Frances, ready for the day.
This Easter was a bit different from last Easter. Last Easter, Mark was busy studying, so Frances and I went without him to our beloved Christ Church in Cambridge. Later, we met up with Mark and dined at a vegan restaurant in Harvard Square. This year, we all got to celebrate together. We are somewhat between churches this year, having yet to find a nearby church that feels like home. We've been attending Trinity Episcopal Church in Boston. It's a terribly proper place. Mark loves that the service starts very early and doesn't eat up the day. I love that the children's choir wears proper robes (I've got standards when it comes to acceptable attire for children's choirs). Frances loves that we take the train to church. Not a great way to pick a church, but it will do for now. The Easter service was full of pomp and fanfare, and over by about 9:30. This is Frances strutting her stuff in front of the church and the people lined up for the 10:00 service.
Unlike last year, this Easter was very un-vegan. We went to a little cafe after church where Mark had biscuits and sausage gravy. Then we came home and ate quiche, ham, salad and strawberry shortcake. We even kept Frances up late (7:30!) so we could play outside together in the lengthening Spring evening. A very festive day.
What church is that? Have you found a church home? I have now been whistling Welcome Happy Morning for the last 2 days. Thank you very much.
