After Thursday's egg decorating soiree, Easter weekend was off to a good start. I spent most of the weekend studying but broke up the monotony with a few holiday happenings. I went to a midnight vigil on Good Friday and then had late-night pancakes with some other college-aged Lutherans at 59 Diner in the wee small hours of Saturday. It was nice to get to chat with some non-med students, a thrill I've been seeking lately... I'm increasingly a fan of broadening my social base. Unfortunately, the real push will have to wait for after exams.
The Sunday morning Easter service was immediately followed by brunch at the Zodrows. I came with an empty stomach (but not empty-handed; see tulips above) and left with a bulging belly and a heart full of that warm-fuzzy feeling. Katherine's sister Laura won this year's round of Egg Wars, the egg-cracking competition that leaves only the hardest shell standing. Brunch was delicious (no surprise there!), and it was tough to admit that I had to leave and hit the books after the meal. This is the last week of classes, which means two weeks of exams await me- eeek. The only relief comes on April 29 with the arrival of Chelsey!

That Easter brunch looks FABULOUS! I sure enjoyed going to the Zodrows for Easter a couple of years ago. :) Paul and I bought a huge ham, but didn't have time to bake it when Mom and Dad were here (and before we left for Europe). It looks like Paul and I will have a huge feast in the coming days...GOOD LUCK with your studies!!!
I think it's so thoughtful of the Zodrow's to include you in that wonderful brunch - give them my best! Dad and I begin Week 2 of the Scarsdale Diet. Alas - no ham for us.
Good luck on your tests - Seeing Chelsey will be a great reward!
