Your Easter Plans

carnation · #1 03-09-2008, 12:18 PM

What will you do? The usual or will you try something new?

We found a new activity last year that we hope to continue, along with the other staples! Target had these glow-in-the-dark plastic eggs...they had a fluorescent strip around them and several tiny flashlights came with them. We had an Easter Eve egg hunt with all these college and high school students stampeding aorund the lawn in the dark for the prizes of chocolate bunnies. This year, one of the daughters has found solid-colored glowing eggs so the hunt will be bigger.

I'm wrestling with what to do - I'm in the middle of packing, I'm going to Houston the week before, and will return home to the chaos on Saturday. I've got to find the Easter box first - with the baskets, etc. I love the glow-in-the-dark idea, though.

ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!

We will go to my husband's parents' for dinner. The kids are with their mother this Easter but I'm going to make all three of them Easter baskets anyway for when they do come over

Stay up all night doing an Easter vigil, then go to the oldest Lutheran Church in Idaho (predates statehood) for sunrise worship. Then go back to town for brunch, take nap, research/work then pass out.

Going home for mom's birthday then back to work on Sunday.

Just a reminder if you have cats-Easter Lilies are very toxic, even the pollen so I would avoid having these plants around if you have a cat.

ILs with the hub and the kid as my dad is going to the NCAA Wrestling tourney and mom is hanging with her parents.

Early church, breakfast at the church, home for naps, lunch, nap again, Easter baskets, drive 3 hours home.

I have to work all morning (gotta love time and a half!) and then over to Mom and Dad's for lunch with the family - though I may be there only for leftovers, but that's okay too.

Acolyte duty for three services, lunch, nap. End of spring break for the college students, so they'll do laundry and go back to school (returning from the beach on Saturday). Packing for youngest's weeklong trip to Washington DC.

I usually cook but may make reservations at the club this year. Guess I'd better decide soon.

Chocolate bunnies, chocolate bunnies, jellybeans. And church in there somewhere. But mainly, chocolate bunnies. And jellybeans.

carnation · #13 03-10-2008, 08:11 PM

Definitely. I am going to snarf many chocolate bunnies.

SWTXBelle · #14 03-10-2008, 08:31 PM

Cadbury chocolate eggs. Who loves the chocolate? Everyone loves the chocolate.
