Easter 2012


Growing up, I spent a lot of my Easters at my great-grandparents house in Jerome, Idaho.  That will always be Easter to me.  It's still weird to celebrate Easter at home and not with Grandma and Grandpa White, even though they passed years ago.  I have very fond memories of the Easter holiday.  We've started some Vernal traditions for our kids, so that hopefully they will have fond memories too.  Vernal is the new Jerome :) 
We always go to the city egg hunt at the Naples park (and usually freeze) and then to Grammy & Papa's house to dye eggs.  The Easter Bunny hides the kid's baskets and some eggs in the house on Sunday morning and then we go to church.  After church it's back to Grammy & Papa's for our traditional dinner and the money egg hunt.  This year my parents let the adults in on the egg hunt fun and I think all the adults were more excited than any of the kids :)
