Easter Pictures

We have had a great Easter. Charles arrived home just in time for our neighbourhood Easter Egg Hunt which I took the liberty of organizing. We had 48 egg plastic eggs hidden, all with jelly beans except one special egg that contained a stone which was to symbolize the stone that had been rolled away indicating that Jesus was risen.

The kids and parents had a great time hunting the eggs. We found 46.5 eggs. There are still 1.5 eggs somewhere in the orchard out in front of our house. I am sure they will be found by some happy kid sometime in the future (or by Carl the gardener!). After the eggs were found, we enjoyed cake (both an Easter bunny and a cross cake), and Charles read the Resurrection story to all the kids. It was a great day. He is risen, he is risen indeed! Enjoy the pictures.

Love the idea of a rock/stone in one of the eggs. Brings Easter Eggs back to the real meaning of Easter.

Erin, I love this bunny cake! It brought fond memories of our Easter together in Cambridge!
