We had a big Easter picnic today with my husband's family. It included aunts, uncles, cousins, and all their kids. We probably had 60 or 70 at least. We go out on a river bank and cook hot dogs and let the kids hunt for Easter candy. It's really nice having it outside with that many people.
Tomorrow I have Easter with my family, my Mom and Stepdad, my brother and his family, and all my kids and their families, at my house. I'm fixing a big lunch for everyone, not hot dogs!!! After lunch we'll hide candy around the yard for the kids to find.
When my kids were younger we always dyed eggs for Easter. My youngest daughter is almost 14 and this year we didn't get around to it, but she didn't seem to miss it. Also, I always used to buy the kids a chocolate bunny, but now I buy so much candy before Easter that I don't even do that anymore. We also try to get new clothes for church for Easter. |
