Greek Easter photoblog, etc...
Just thumbing through a few recent pictures and thought I would post a few for the vast Fetafilter audience. Last Sunday was the day the Greeks celebrate Easter, so as is our tradition, Mrs. A cooked some tasty lamb and other stuff and we generally enjoyed the time at home. For those who don't know, another thing that happens during the Greek observance of Easter is that one dyes Easter eggs, always a deep, solid, red to represent the blood of Christ. True to form, we had a bowl of such red eggs. Chaz could not help but demo his egg-spinning skilz. After the meal, the tradition is that everyone chooses an egg, and then proceeds to go around the room knocking their egg against everyone else's. The person with the remaining unbroken egg "wins" and is said to be the recipient of all manner of good luck. This year, Markie took that honor, his egg placed in the winners throne. A great time was had by all.

Amongst the photos that I found on my camera, there were a bunch that I had not taken. Apparently there was some sort of "fun with hats" activity going on. It included a few shots of Raymond. There is no denying how incredibly smooth this kid is, even when he's down in da hood. Teddy, on the other hand, is still young enough to be unwittingly subject to abuse at the hands of his older sister.

At first, I was not sure exactly what was going on here in these pictures, but I'm quite sure that such activity is not "Mom Approved." (note stuffed dinosaur, Phil, being launched vertically into the air.)

This has nothing to do with anything, but this picture belongs in a photo contest someplace.
