Here's a cell phone shot of the palm procession at church - the one I got of just Jackson (you can't see him here) didn't get saved. . .
And while I'm uploading bad cell phone shots, here's one of Jackson (in corner w/hat) reinacting the battle at Concord as a Colonist w/fellow patriot Owen (on the left), fighting a Red Coat (Stockton) at our homeschool co-op:
We had a wonderful day, too! Our church actually did a palm processional with the kids, which surprised me, but Sophie had predicted. At home, we had our own procession with palm branches and threw our robes down for Jesus to enter on as we sang, "Hosanna!"
We then had the most delicious meal of Big Bill's gourmet scrambled eggs, a salad incorporating heart of palm, avocado, and grapefruit, accompanied by marzipan stollen. Yum! While dinner was being prepared, Cody and Sophie dyed the most beautiful eggss...Soph is quite the egg artist, using multiple colors, creating stripes, etc.
It was a memorable time, especially getting to share it with BB and Essie (Whom Sophie has occasionally taken to calling "Bill" and "Es")
