Easter in Farmville, VA
It's Easter Sunday in Farmville, Virginia, USA. It's a bit colder than usual - the weather man said it's 20 degrees (F) colder than normal today.
Yesterday we had a rare April snow.
Christy did a lot of work in the tulip bed near our side door a couple weeks ago and these beautiful tulips blossomed last week while I was in Boston. The snow provided an interesting contrast:
We ran into town yesterday for some garden supplies - it's time to plant gardens around here despite the snow. A neighbor brought his tractor over Thursday and plowed and disced a plot for us on the east side of the house. We're going for morning sun and afternoon shade.
The Easter Bunny showed up while we were at Walmart so we grabbed a picture with Stevie Ray and Emma Grace.
On the way out Emma got to ride the "frain":
We almost bought Stevie Ray this Easter basket:
Earlier today we went to church with Mom and Jimmy Lee:
That's Stevie Ray (4) and Emma Grace (almost 2) down front. Mom's on the left, Christy (and "Wee") are in the middle, and Jimmy Lee is on the right.
Everyone else at casa de Leonard is napping as I type. I'm using the time to catch up on business paperwork, write, work on some SSIS projects, and blog! The Mets/Braves game is on in the background. Life is good.
We'll likely ride into town a little later and get some ice cream. The kids were relatively quiet and good in church this morning... we need to reinforce that behavior at every opportunity.
From Farmville, Happy Easter everybody.
