What We Did at Easter

We spent the recent Easter weekend celebrating with family in RI and CT.  It was hard to believe that the weather was chillier on this holiday than on Christmas Day in New England. We were outdoors without jackets in December, but not so in March.

Our indoor activities included one of our favorite "traditions" on the day before the holiday — coloring eggs.

The grandkids are just as enthusiastic as we are, it seems, so it was a fun afternoon.




And each of them has their own technique. Granddaughter called hers "rainbowing" the eggs.


Grandpa and mom were there to help and also help with the coloring and sampling afterwards.








Easter Sunday morning it was time for opening treats after we returned from services.



The grandkids "lent" us their bunny ears for our self-portrait — we really liked the noses.


The only "one" who didn't have fun was this large chocolate bunny which was demolished after a family dinner. (It was delicious.)


If you also celebrated Easter, we hope that your holiday celebration was happy (and joyous) too.
