BK would like to introduce you to his new Easter ball, while Lex tries unwrapping a sleeve of raspberry Pez.

Jasmine is small and has a gimp foot but she's the alpha cat and she's mine. The only time Tang has fought was at the cat room at the Dakin Animal Shelter — Monstro started to pet a different cat and Tangers batted at the infidel until it went away.

Lex cleaned up and BK did great. It will be an Easter miracle if they both nap today. Praise Jesus!

Lex was very excited to get to church on Palm Sunday because of the important job he'd been tasked with.

Lex and Pastor Mike practice the palm-branch hand-off in preparation of the Palm Sunday processional.

Lex hands out the palm branches, with help from Dominik and under the watchful gaze of Monstro.

BK was quite happy to be offered a palm branch. He waved it with gleeful fervor.

We Methodists are very serious about our coffee-and-refreshment hour after church. The boys have definitely caught on.

Buster is a “Dixie Dog” who was trucked up from LA to this MA animal shelter. “Most of our dogs are Dixie Dogs,” our guide, Jeff, explained.

Well, in the Dogloo is more like it… BK at his nursery-school's field-trip to the local no-kill animal shelter.
