Happy Easter! I hope you had a wonderful weekend celebrating New Life! We had a much-needed, quiet family weekend.
When BBC was two we bought him Resurrection Eggs. I highly recommend these. I love that the included scripture and messages grow with the child. It is absolutely precious to hear BBC tell the Easter story in such great detail. Occasionally he will add a little BBC embellishment. This year he announced that he wants to try wine and it’s OK because Jesus did. Oh that child.
We don’t make a huge deal out of the bunny. He usually brings a couple of small gifts and lots of candy. BBC has had the same bunny basket (and grass) since he was born. I love carrying on a tradition and it makes it so much easier for the bunny.
I felt a little bad when I saw Amanda’s baskets for her girls. They were mostly filled with gifts and a little candy. Quite the opposite of BBC’s basket. I guess the bunny knows this family has a sweet tooth – ha!
Finally, we hunted eggs in the back yard. As you can see in this picture, BBC is not a very good hunter. He comes by that honestly from DH. Let’s just say if anything needs to be found in this home, I’m on the case.That’s how our Easter shaped up. How about yours?

Good morning! Our Easter was wonderful. We are the same way about Easter, we really try to make sure that the focus is on Christ and not the bunny. We do get candy, because you just have to, right? We love our resurrection eggs that we have also.
Blessings to you, Amy
