Although this Easter was certainly very different, it was also lovely.
We started Saturday with out egg coloring!
This year, we actually Zoomed with all of my cousins for the decorating. We all used to go to Grandma's to color when we were little, and it was fun to all be back together. Even Brad got in on the decorating this year:
He made his egg a little robot suit:
Issa made egg tutus:
It was fun to see everyone's eggs on screen:
After the egg coloring, we enjoyed a Greek feast that Shannon and Mom prepared. I really think it was the best falafel I've ever had in my life.
Sunday morning, Buddy arrived with cute bunny garland for our mantel:
We went to Mom's again, where the Bunny had visited:
The favorite basket treat were these logic puzzles:
Before brunch and church online, we headed outside to get some Easter photos. My two goofballs shoved huge pieces of monkey bread in their mouths on the way out the door:
But we did get some great pics:
After egg bake, we watch the service from the National Cathedral:
Bishop Curry's message about "It's Easter Anyway" was exactly what I needed to hear yesterday.
After church, Nana and Aunt Shannon surprised up with a second egg hunt upstairs:
Grandma Luzny used to hide the little Hershey eggs, and they continued that tradition. It's more of a grown-up egg hunt, and I think it will be making a comeback next year. This year they played nice; next year, I have a feeling the old tricks of unwrapping eggs and using tacky-tuff to hide them at odd angles will be back!
We spent the afternoon doing a puzzle and just being. The Wooden Nickel delivered a killer ham dinner, and we ended our day with a new card game that the Bunny left.
It was a very different Easter, but I wouldn't have traded a minute!
Now, the school schedule is up for the week:
Here we go!
