Easter Morning

I'm a little late posting. Here are some snapshots from our first Easter in the UK. It will be memorable because it snowed all morning. The bunny managed to make it across the pond with perfect timing (unlike the boxes that were sent with all our Easter goodies - thanks to the good ole US & Uk mail services). They do not hunt eggs here or dye them. I looked for dye kits and food coloring but could find neither. I came up a unique alternative... we painted the eggs (notice that they are brown free range eggs). The kids all had a good time painting the eggs - even Cael. They do not have Easter baskets here either. Luckily, the bunny found our old baskets from last year. All in all it was nice. The bunny hid the eggs outside (joy joy) in the snow. It was really really really cold. The cold didn't bother Cael, he did not want to come back inside. We missed seeing and talking to everyone. It really hit us hard the next day. We were all out of it on Monday. We took the kids shopping to try and cheer everyone one up and we rode our first double decker bus! I think it's now time to start planning our first holiday. I was looking at the weather and it's supposed to hit 60F next week. I CAN'T WAIT!
