A "Good Friday" & Saturday!

Hello everyone! I got these pictures a little out of order, but here you go! We are all happy, healthy, and having a great time. The processions on Good Friday were definitely an experience -- so beautiful. Gabi is such a little trooper. She seems to sleep only when it is extremely loud and the ride is bumpy in the Snugli!

A looming volcano over Antigua.


Little angels walk as part of a Good Friday procession.


As the procession goes past, the smell of myrh is so intense. Think Easter Mass x 50! This little girl is so beautfiul as she walks with her dad.


An alfombra -- carpets are made before the procession for them to walk on.

Our favorite pic so far! Such a cutie!



Thanks for my cute outfit, Donna!


Antigua is covered in purple until the evening of Good Friday -- then all of the banners are changed to black.


Another alfombra.

That's all for now! We will attend Sunday Mass tomorrow. Check back for pictures of Gabi in her Easter dress. We hope you all have a very Blessed Easter!

Lots of love,

Joe, Tara, & Gabi
