I hope that you all had a wonderful Easter
weekend. Did any of you have any special
plans? I wish that I had something
planned for Easter this year, but all I ended up doing was working most of the
day. I did however make it to the first
church service at 7:30am. Where there
were surprisingly tons of families with little children dressed in their Sunday
best. After
seeing all of those families in church this morning, I was a little nostalgic for those Easter traditions my
family had while I was growing up.
Our family traditions involved
getting Easter baskets with the obligatory chocolate bunny, jelly beans and
crazy colored grass, dying eggs, hunting eggs filled with chocolate foiled wrapped eggs,
dressing up in fancy dresses for church and eating a family dinner together. As
my sisters and I got a little older, the traditions tapered off to just attending
church and family dinners. Now that
everyone in my family is working and off doing their own thing, we barely get together
for Easter anymore.
I know that things never really stay
the same, but it would be nice to get some of the old traditions back. I guess this is something that I need to work
on for next Easter. I hope you and your
family enjoyed your holidays and holiday traditions. Is Easter a big holiday for your
family or do you keep it small? Let me know in the comments.
