Happy Easter!



Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!

Sons of man and angles say: Alleluia!

Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

Sing, ye heavens and earth reply: Alleluia.



Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!

Where, o death, is now your sting? Alleluia!

Dying once He all doth save, Alleluia!

Where thy victory, o grave? Alleluia!



Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia!

Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!

Death in vain forbids Him rise, Alleluia!

Christ has opened Paradise, Alleluia!



Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia!

Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!

Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!

Ours the cross, the grave, the skyes, Alleluia!



Happy Easter

Biking

Another 6 miles today! my hands are covered in graese! My chain fell off in the middle of a really steep hill I was climbing. Do you know how scary it is to be peddling you heart out up hill and the next thing you know you're rolling backwards down it... towards an intersection... at high speed? Not fun!

Anyways, 10 miles down and 1,490 to go! Ten hardly seems like a noble feat compared to what I still need to do...

Visit with Grandparents!

Oh Boy! It's that time of year again...
This past Sunday, our family went to see our grandparents on the other side of the state. Since my mom and dad grew up in the same town, we can basically visit our entire family all at the same time. Rather convenient... Anywho, it takes about an hour and forty-five minutes to drive to their houses, so on the way over, Holly and i played the alphabet game. You basically look for signs out the window and look for letters in the order of the alphabet. the first person to get to Z wins! Only, we put a little different spin on it: instead of just seeing the letter, you had to take a picture of it and be able to see it in the picture, which was a little unfair, since Holly's camera is about 1,000 times better than mine. Funny, I still one, but I digress.

We went to my dads parents first and visited with them for a few hours. My uncle (Dads brother) and aunt were there at the same time. the live on the same road as my grandparents. My uncle owns a sugaring business. And for those flat landers, that means we make maple maple syrup. Real maple syrup. Real NH maple syrup! And we don't tap telephone polls, they do that on the other side of the Connecticut river... I will digress on that subject, too. My uncle is paying me to make tubing for him, so have a little money!!

While we were there, Grampa, Holly and I went 4-wheeling out behind their house! It was awesome! I love 4-wheeling almost as much as biking!

After that, I walked around and took some pictures! ther are so many things to take pictures of up at my grand parents, you wouldn't believe it!

Here are some of them:







They live on a really steep dirt road.

Would hate to go down it with on breaks!

LUCY!!

Dustin's Sugar House!



The Dump-truck 


One of the sap containers

You might be a Red Neck if ya'll live on a Dead End Class 6 Road...



The dome on top of the school


Holly heading back to the house


The bare. This is probably my favorite picture



The Chicken Coop


Lots of wood

The explosives I almost killed myself with 

And where I found them



You don't realize how big the wrench really is until you look at the hammer next to it.

Tools!!!

AWESOME TRACTORS!!!

This thing is really fun to drive!

Barrel mover... How would you like to get picked up with that? 

Coco!


Wall...

Or Secret Door???

Wall...

Or Secret Door???

Up to the hayloft!

Almost fell through the trapdoor!

Found a Bull Whip! Makes me feel a little like Indiana Jones, but only a little!





There is some really cool old farm equipment there, too! 


Then we went to see my moms parents. They live about three minutes away from my other grandparents.
Ringa! His name is Ringa because when they got him, he ran around the tree he was tied to.  And since Ring around the Rosie is to long, Ringa was adopted.  I could not get a good picture of him to save my life.
FACE SHOT!!!


Finally! A good one...



Holly

Grama! Sorry your gift was two months late!

A picture of a picture of my cousins!

The piano!



A look through the key whole!

And that is the door I was at!

Oh, and we had Thin Mints!

Oh, that cookie!
