With family? Friends? What would you truly like to do? And what will you actually do? I’m hoping to talk WTF in going up to visit our grandkids… Wish me luck!
Im adopted and since I turned 18 in Jan. I’m goign to visit my real father and reunite with thhat whole side of the family for the first time in 11 years. Im bringing along a friend incase I get to emtional. Hopefully it works out (:
Same thing I do every Easter, go to church then dinner at my Grandmother’s house. I love our family holiday meals and wouldn’t pass them up for anything. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.
We start by overloading the kids on Easter candy before breakfast. Then we eat something completely unhealthy, like lots of bacon and a french toast casserole. Dress the kids up in outfits they’ll hate us for when they’re teens, throw them into the car, and endure a two hour drive to my brother-in-law’s father’s house. Once we’re there, we’ll eat too much and follow the kids around to make sure they don’t break anything. I’ll unveil the honey ricotta cheesecake I’m making for dessert, then sit back and bask in the glow of compliments on my dessert skills. :) After a while, we’ll change the kids into play clothes and (if the weather is nice) have an Easter egg hunt in the woods. The guys end up playing football with the kids, and eventually we drive back home. The youngest of our kids will fall asleep in the car, so the drive will be quiet!
So, it’ll be a typical combination of stress, annoyance, fun, great food, and happiness.
Easter egg hunt with my son, stopping at my grandmother-in-law’s for some food, then dinner with my parents. Nothing fancy, just a nice ham dinner. I can’t wait!
Sunrise service. The Church we go to for sunrise service (Our church doesn’t do it anymore) must have been built for this service. The east side of the sanctuary is all glass and as the sun begins to rise we sing Jesus Christ is Risen Today! Alleluia! It makes me cry every year. Then it’s breakfast and Easter egg hunts with our Grand Children.
It will be a quiet one this year. We’re missing dad. We’ll have an Easter lunch, (the entire family doesn’t go to church, just some of us), and egg hunts with my son and a few of his friends. We’re cooking for my mom.
