We had a lovely Easter Sunday a few weeks ago. We began the day worshiping at Moody Church with my parents, then headed to their condo for a delicious brunch. Seriously delicious. Sadly, I’ve become either lazy or forgetful when it comes to taking pictures these days, so you are left to picture the scenes in your imagination, and I am left to my memory (which isn’t very promising).

We did manage to get a family picture on the rooftop, though. These kids are getting so big, and I’m feeling bittersweet emotions looking at this picture.

After brunch, Ruthie asked to visit the dog park down the street from my parents’ building. Dogs of all sizes and temperaments run free in this gated area covered in artificial turf…a vet-in-training’s dream! Ruthie provided much entertainment, not only for us but for many of the dog owners in the park. Some were taking pictures of her interacting with the dogs (all of course while wearing a pretty dress–a very pretty dress).

She was like the pied piper of Dogland. The canines followed her everywhere.

The yellow lab in the pictures is not Molly; I thought it was cute that a Molly look-alike especially took to Ruth.

It was a great day in the city!
