After Mass we went to Grandma & Grandpa's house for the day.
We ate lunch, played outside, colored eggs, and just hung out.

Egg "Hunting".

Today after Mass was the Easter Egg "Hunt". We got there and they had just started to put the eggs on the soccer field when it started raining. Not to worry though, we all just filed into the gym for some egg fun!

On our Way...

The beginning of Holy Week...Palm Sunday.

Photobucket

These are the palm crosses we made at Mass today.

Palm Sunday occurs on the Sunday before Easter Sunday. It signals the upcoming end of Lent and the beginning of Holy Week. The day commemorates the spreading of palms and clothing in Jesus' path as He entered Jerusalem prior to His crucifixion:

They brought the donkey and the colt, placed their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat on them. A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!" (Matthew 21:7-9)
