Happy Easter!

Wishing you all a very happy and blessed Easter! Cody and I celebrated by exchanging 'baskets' this morning after I arrived home from work. Incidentally, both of our baskets included shoes: Cody got new dress shoes and I got hiking shoes (waterproof: very exciting!). We're enjoying our gifts and well wishes from family and friends. It was delightful to see our niece and nephew and chat with family: how wonderful Skype is for closing the gap in miles.

Although we thought we left early enough for church this morning, we got to enjoy Easter Mass from the parish gymnasium. We were graciously invited over to Cody's boss' house for Easter/The Masters brunch following church. We enjoyed a wonderful brunch and a lonnnnngggg afternoon of golf. (I did have to take a quick catnap toward the end of the rounds, and apparently nobody noticed, whew).

Afterward, we took advantage of dwindling daylight and headed to the park. What a lovely Easter and celebration of Cody's first anniversary, so to speak. :) Enjoy a few pictures from our weekend:

We broke the all-time snow record here in Anchorage this weekend, much to our chagrin. 134 stinkin' inches

I came home to a few 'hidden' eggs, including this one the moose seemingly laid

Headed to Easter Mass (Cody may have said a few unkind words over his bitterness at his sister-in-law's tie wrapping job, still lingering from Christmas)

Easter beaver!
