Happy (Early) Easter!
Apr. 7th, 2007 11:04 pmJust got in from the Easter Vigil at my church, where I was confirmed and had my first communion. The ceremony was long -- almost two hours -- but very beautiful. At one point, I was almost in tears.
It's funny, but even though my mom and my aunt called each other to make sure they didn't buy me the same gift, due to a misunderstanding, they both got me cross pendants. The one from my parents was silver with cubic zirconia accents, and the one from my uncle (who was my sponsor) and aunt was gold and diamonds. They were both beautiful, though, so I didn't mind. ^_^ Deacon Steve and Patsy, who were in charge of the RCIA, also gave all the participants a prayer book.
Afterward, there was a brief reception, where everybody kept begging me to join the choir, which was really flattering. I would love to do so, but since I wouldn't have a ride to practice most of the time, I doubt I will.
In other news, my sister (who wasn't able to come due to work obligations today and tomorrow) called Mom to tell her that it was snowing in Nacogdoches. Yes, you heard me. Snow. In Texas. In April.
Talk about a white Easter!
(And there's a slight chance it will snow here tonight, too, but I doubt it.)
I wonder what are the chances that this cold snap will hold on until next weekend, when we're going up to Nacogdoches for Laura's senior recital. Probably not good, but it would be cool if it did. ^_^
