Easter

To celebrate Easter Sunday we took the Heinisch children to the Tudor Room for brunch.  Doug and I had not been there since his family took us twenty three years ago.  It was just as fantastic today as it was then.  There were several different meats to choose from, salads, fruit, desserts and side dishes.  I thoroughly enjoyed brunch, but not because of the food.  It has been quite awhile since the six of us have all been together and this was the perfect end to a wonderful weekend.

We left Brett after brunch and started home.  The trip was long, but gave us time to reflect.  Meg was sad today as she thought of last Easter.  We all spent that day in DeKalb with Jeanette.  It was a wonderful day as well.  Meg's thoughts reminded me of the last time we were at the Tudor Room.  It was with Carl, Jeanette, Dorothy and Marion.  It is hard to believe that three of them are no longer with us.

The day was not all sad, however.  Once we got home Cal and Cam headed to the golf course with Dad and Mom respectively.  Doug and I took a walk around the neighborhood.  It was absolutely gorgeous outside.  Meg opted to rest.  She has a sinus infection that just won't go away, so I plan to take her to the doctor tomorrow.  Tonight Cam and I are enjoying "The Ten Commandments."  I have never seen it and it is a great retelling of Moses' life and a wonderful reminder of God's love on the glorious day.
