Let's do the Easter Hop!

I haven't tried that SCG. Easter egg hunting is not done in our country.There are some who celebrate it but it's hosted by malls and so. We don't do it in our own home. What we usually do at that time is go to church or visit our love ones in the province...

When I was a kid purple was my favorite color to dye the eggs followed by pink and blue in a close 2nd and 3rd. We always had an Easter Egg hunt indoors with the chocolate Easter eggs. This weekend (Sat) we are going to dye some Easter eggs with my 3 year old and she too will have to look all over the house for chocolate Easter eggs! We didn't want her to have too much chocolate so we got her an Easter coloring book and a few Easter toys as well as chocolate Easter eggs! It will be so much fun I can't wait! I think my hubby and I are more excited about it then Angelina is!

When I was young we always colored eggs every Easter. We also had the plastic ones as well. This year I colored eggs and fixed up a basket for my granddaughter. I actually took it to her today because I'm not sure if I'll see her Sunday. I live in another town now and they have a lot of plans for Easter Sunday. Since I was driving down to spend the day with my oldest daughter before she heads back to Virginia, I went ahead and went my her sister's and dropped off the basket for my granddaughter.

I'm a little old to be doing an easter egg hunt this year, but I do enjoy decorating eggs. I used to do Ukranian-style eggs, or pysanky, which are blocked out with wax and repeatedly dyed until the eggs look like batik jewels. It's a time-consuming process but the results are beautiful.

When I was a kid in the 50s, we didn't have plastic Easter eggs. We had to dye and search for the real ones. Sometimes we didn't find them all on Easter and they'd be in pretty bad shape by July. After we did find them and put them in our Easter basket with our huge chocolate bunny and jelly beans, we'd eat on them for a week. I can't remember having a favorite color...I do remember dying them half purple and half green or something like that. (We also didn't have stickers in the 50s; we used wax to draw on faces, squiggly lines, etc.)

Yes, we are also celebrating Easter, We usually go to mass and have some dinner.Its nice to celebrate Easter with the family.

Yes, I am . We are leaving tomorrow morning fairly early, and heading to Oklahoma. My brother is a minister. However, brother and his wife will be at work when we get to Oklahoma. I am giving myself a treat, and driving just a little bit further, in order to meet a MyLot/Gather friend. That will be the second friend in two weeks from online sites. Tomorrow night we will have Good Friday service. Plus, I will practice singing with a group from the church, because they are short of female voices. Saturday we will have an Easter Egg hunt at the church, and do some other preparations. My sister and her family will arrive sometime then. I will practice a song with my older sister, she plays auto harp. I will be one of many singing and doing some things in the service. I may read an original poem as well. I have eggs boiled and a dying kit here that I will get to this afternoon. I am so glad it is spring. I enjoy celebrating the resurrection of my Savior as well. Happy Easter.
