This past Sunday was Easter Sunday. The weather for the whole weekend was unseasonably cold and nasty.

Saturday was Malin’s “Karate in the Park” promotion. She was photographing several local karate students in a nearby park – the parents of the students paid only a small fee and received a complimentary 8×12 of their child, posed for combat (complete with props – swords, daggers, staffs, and the like).

While she was photographing, Will was napping, and I was hanging out around the house, playing in the basement mostly.

The next day was Easter Sunday. My parents weren’t able to make it, so it started off with just us three. Malin’s mom had been having some serious difficulty with her television (she used to have a cat that sprayed the back of the television – which has recently caused enough corrosion to ruin the television). So we went over to her place to get her situated with another television. The fun part was hooking everything up, having to battle what seemed like miles of speaker wire and satellite cable to do so. After that, we returned home. I cooked up a batch of beer (a Belgian White Beer), Malin cooked Easter dinner (authentic, southern-Italian pasta dishes: Roasted Green Beans with Balsamic Vinegar and Fettucini Bolognese), and Will banged on his latest love, the drums (with some help from his momma):

Once the sun came out, it was warm enough to color and then hide boiled eggs and have Will go look for them. Will had a fun time helping color the eggs. We had to take his shirt off because he was a bit careless with splashing the wonderful, vinegar-smelling dye:

That was about the peak of excitement, although things got exciting when Will ate his first Cadbury Egg, too:

All in all it was a good weekend – though we didn’t do much celebration regarding Jesus’s rising from the grave (sorry, Jesus). Hopefully everyone else’s Easter weekend was similarly enjoyable.
