Happy Easter Week

-

Happy Easter week everyone!!!! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. I did :) Easter morning my mom's parents and one of our uncles came over early to our house for house for a breakfast that consisted of cold Polish Sausage, horse radish, that we all had to smell, blessed hard boiled eggs, Easter bread, and hot cross buns. Yavi's friend from school, who is from Ghana, came over on Saturday night and colored Easter eggs with us, she also came on Sunday morning for breakfast since she didn't have any other plans. After breakfast we went to mass. I apologize for all of the random stuff in the picture but here is a picture of the dress that I wore for Easter.


Here is a picture of my Easter basket. Not pictured is the new earrings that I got since I was wearing them.


After mass we came home for a few minutes and then went to my other grandma's house for dinner. All of the aunts, uncles and cousins were there. Dinner was ham, carrots, asparagus, bread and cheesy potatoes. Of course it wouldn't be Easter without the lamb cake, though I didn't have a piece. I had a piece of the pineapple upside down cake instead. If I had remembered to bring my camera with I would have taken a picture of the inside of our church as well as the lamb cake that my aunt made. Instead hear is a picture of the mini minion figure that I got in my Easter basket. Everyone got a Despicable Me mini figure in their baskets.

Especially when it comes to places like schools and the workplace. But most people don't realize that modesty isn't just about what you wear; it is also about how you act around others and toward yourself.  Photo by Amanda Canas on Unsplash I am talking about this because I read an article on my Facebook feed the other day about a father who posted a picture with his two daughters in their homecoming dresses. And it was talking about his response to the people commenting on the style of the dresses. I don't remember the article's name, but I do know that it mentioned "girls to dress, so they don't distract boys," as well as saying that they are "aski...

--- 1 --- The other day I was feeling a bit bored so I made a couple covers for the story that I started working on. --- 2 --- A couple of weeks ago I was looking up pictures of the minons from "Despicable Me", don't remember why, but while I was scrolling down the page I came across this minion picture: --- 3 --- I found this on Pinterest a while back... --- 4 --- On Sunday we had to shovel snow off the driveway. It was really cold out and it made my stomach kind of hurt a little bit afterwards. The only bright side, besides being able to come inside and warm up, was getting hot chocolate. --- 5 --- Since I couldn't think of anything else to write for this one I decided to share the first couple sentences of what I have written so far of my story let me know how you like it :) Standing under the only low-lit street lamp Xiomara looked both ways at the quiet street lit only by the light of the street lamps. Sighing to herself...
