You know, celebration of our Lord Jesus resurrected for our sins. Big holiday over here, most years. Second only to Christmas over here, most years. Something we usually look forward to for several weeks.
This year...hmmm...not so much. Because I was helping at church, a few things kind of fell apart at home. Oh well. We'll schedule better next year. We did get a few things in and it was a lovely day over all...just not traditonal...or rather not OUR traditonal.
We did color eggs on Saturday. My girls LOVE coloring eggs. And we go it one further because we also dye paper towels...as evidenced in my last post. We dye paper towels because Bubba HATES plastic grass (with a purple passion)...so I use the dyed, dried paper towels in their baskets...
Here is the set up and the egg dying in all it's glory...
And after the fun of all that...the next morning we got up...went through their baskets...went to church...were there for two services...enjoyed ourselves. Went to TGIFriday's for lunch (not exactly Easter Dinner but I didn't have to do the dishes :) ). Came home...napped. Got up...ate dinner and watched a movie. Didn't remember until bed time that we hadn't hunted eggs, played with our Resurrection Eggs, read from the Bible or watched Cotton Patch Gospel...or any of the other things that make Easter, Easter over here.
I'm a little sad about it. But then again, it was last week and the memory is fading quickly with the fun of this week. As it should be.
See you around...
