We are going to church. I am not opposed to doing other things afterwards but we haven't been invited to anything as of yet and we don't do the Easter Bunny.

We'll go to our old church (Spring Hills) and then do the egg hunt there after the service. They always have thousands of eggs and the kids leave with a basket full. We may do something with my Dad afterwards. My Grandmother just died on Friday so we need some family time.

We do Brunch/Lunch, Easter baskets and an Egg Hunt. This will be our first year doing pics with the Easter bunny we didn't do it last year.

We'll do an egg hunt somewhere in the county on Saturday and then an egg hunt for Caden on Easter morning. If I feel up to it, I might make a brunch for the family. But I have to work that afternoon. Yuck.

I plan on having an egg hunt at home and maybe participating in a few other egg hunts coming up if money permits it.

We try to do a trip or just a special day with just us. No grandparents, friends, etc. just a holiday for us and the kids. We used to always go to Mendocino and have our easter egg hunt somewhere there. We are rethinking that tradition because it's not the most kid friendly place but it sure was nice the years we did go.

We are going to church (it *is* on a Sunday... LOL) and there's a potluck afterwards... then I'm going to see about setting up an egg hunt for the kids afterwards... we don't do the bunny, but I have *no* problem with a fun egg hunt ;) Lets hope the other members of the church agree! LOL

We have 2 hunts on the 15/16 and then a friendly gathering on Easter. There's probably going to be a hunt that day too. I just hope the weather stays nice!

Usually, it is just us and the kids and we do an egg hunt with a special brunch, but this year we will be out of state visiting Grandma, and Great Grandparents and Great Aunt and Uncle. We are doing an egg hunt and a special brunch with everyone.

I'm not sure yet.
Dan wants me to come up to his work for an egg hunt.
I'm not really sure if I want to.
And I'm still not sure if my in-laws are coming up that week either.
And I haven't heard word as to what my parents are doing yet.

I think we are just going to have a egg hunt with Mav. He didn't do one last year because he wasn't even crawling yet. So it should be really fun! I plan to get some cute picures!

I'm not against going to church, but I'm pretty sure I know the story of Easter :giggle I've heard it every Easter Sunday at church since I was old enough to understand it;) And really, I don't like the outreach approach to church services on Easter...it actually bugs me. So, unless I find a church that is just having a normal sunday service sans the Easter "message" I'm probably not going to worry about it.

Then we'll probably hangout in the yard and hopefully we will BBQ (if we got a new one by then).

We are going to go to church in the a.m. and have brunch at our house with some family coming into town. Believe it or not, since we have the only grandbaby (6 mos. old) on my husband's side, my mother-in-law is planning an adult Easter egg hunt with ca$h!! Can't wait to see a bunch of grown-ups running around looking for plastic eggs!

That sounds like fun! I wish my Mom would do that for us! I sure could use the cash!
