Easter Weekend here this year will consist of me, Mom, Uncle Morgan, little Morgan, Olivia, Papa, and Beka, with some John and Joey. On Good Friday we fasted and Mom went to church (I got home late and John worked). Saturday morning we went to Costco and bought a SUP (stand up paddleboard). Uncle Morgan and crew arrived a little after noon. John and I headed out to surf at I of P with our newly fixed up red board (dings fixed and screw replaced in fin) and my old board. It was a pretty good early season day with nice 2 foot waves but good form. We returned home and John got ready for work, while the rest of us headed to the beach to try out the SUP. You might be asking yourself, "What SUP?" hehe, okay, back to narrative. Mom did great on her board and even did a few spins with Olivia on the back.
Uncle Mo was also able to do it although there may have been a little "learning curve".
Then we headed back home and grilled cheeseburgers for the five of us and Papa and Beka. Great cookout. Then we played some dominoes, our new standard game. Aunt Beka has been on a winning streak, but it came to an end with me winning one round and Little Mo taking the other. At that point Papa and Black Beauty headed for home, but Aunt Beka stayed to die Easter Eggs. The eggs came from John girlfriend Corianne's mother who has chickens!
I think the results speak for themselves. Excellent Work!
Today we will go to church, but they are opening John's restaurant, so he has to go work for a couple of hours around noon, but then he will return and we will have Easter Dinner at 2650 Middle St. Dinner, shown at top, will be Lamb with potatoes and onions, with garlic, rosemary, and mint (the last added after picture taken). Happy Easter to all! Hail thee festival day!

First of all, GREAT post! Fantastic pictures and that all looks so much fun! I'm glad we're having an equally good time here, or else I would be even MORE jealous ;) Really great though, and so glad that the surfing is good and surftastic-barbie-mom (heehee... jk ;) is what SUP! (I explained that joke to Capers a couple times before she said "no - I got it the first time. I just didn't laugh as much as you" so, Dad, apparently your own family may still be a good audience for your jokes.)
Lots of love to the Mo fam, and the eggs do indeed look great!
You said "die" Easter Eggs. This could be made into a joke by a clever person. Any takers?
Whoops!
This looks like such a fun Easter! Almost as good as our German one :) Hehe!
