Easter weekend plans?

14 years ago

What is everyone doing for Easter?

It is our 5 day stretch with SS, but tomorrow is his birthday. :) So per the schedule, this year, he is with us until 9 AM on his birthday and then with BM until 9 AM the next day.

Tomorrow is his school-friends party at 11, so I imagine he will just be with us until then and BM will take him home from that. (I am not going and feeling very relieved/good about the decision! No guilt!)

On Easter morning, DD and I will go to church and then DH is letting BM have SS until early afternoon so he can celebrate with her family. (CRAZY as it sounds, EASTER is not in the custody schedule!!!!) Anyway, DH, DD and I will have brunch with my dad and then later in the day, after we've gotten SS, we will head to my mom's for an egg hunt and Easter dinner. But it will also be a birthday party for SS with cake, streamers, balloons and presents.

Should be a fun weekend! I hope everyone has a Happy Easter weekend.

No big plans here. Getting my taxes done tomorrow, then taking dogs to the park for a few hours. DH is working.

Sounds like you have a fun weekend planned and planned it well :0)

Enjoy your holiday!

Today we are just relaxing. We don't have my SS this year. But my MIL, DH, DD, and 2 nieces are all going swimming and I am hoping to pick up a new sewing machine before I go to work tonight. Then tomorrow we are getting together with my DH's family for Easter dinner and to celebrate my FIL's birthday. The nieces are coming here tomorrow too to do an Easter Egg hunt with DD.

Here are some pictures of the gourds at the gourd festival and the class. I'll show you the ugly one first (mine).... The gourd I picked had an opening that was slanted. I wanted it to look like a cracked egg with little lizards crawling out (ok, I'm a little macabre!). The lizard pattern was from a Native American kit. I would like to paint the lizards a couple of shades of green and then stain the rest of the gourd so it looks natural. Here are some of the instructor's sample gourds: For this one, she used a doilie to create the pattern. It was my favorite. This is another simple but pretty one she did. Here is one with similar Native American designs to the one I did. Now here were some awesome sculpted gourds for sale at the festival. I was afraid to even look at the price!

Do You Have Plans For Easter?

I'm going to have a big family feast on Sat. My youngest DD and her family live 125 miles away, and I know they want their boys in their church for Easter, and I'm so glad they go to church, that I thought we'd do it Sat. I always dye eggs w/ the grands--most children have never done that--they're so used to the plastic things. I know what each one in my family likes, and that will determine the menu. I'll make enough to feed an army. LOL My GD that goes to Texas A&M is always happy to take leftovers home w/ her. I basically HATE to cook unless it is a big family dinner, and I know the only picky person there will be my DH, so, I'll enjoy preparing food that will be eaten and appreciated.

What are your plans for this weekend, National Quilting Day?

Linda, the bunnies on your table runner are really cute! I was thinking of National Quilting Day this morning and saw in our newpaper that there was an estate sale close by and they listed "old quilts" --- well, the quilts weren't as old as I expected and although they were lovely, I wasn't shopping for a semi-modern quilt at those prices. However, I found a quilted child's skirt for $3. It is such a fun item and has a ton of quilting in it, so that --- along with a few other things --- came home with me. I don't usually do that sort of thing so it was fun. What a beautiful day it is here... too pretty to stay inside and sew. (I do not have a child to wear the skirt; I am just keeping it because it is so INTERESTING! I wish I could post a picture but PhotoBucket and my computer don't seem to get along these days.) Everyone have a nice day! Jeanne

I am working Saturday... DIL is taking DGS overnight so he will be back on Sunday. Sunrise services are being held on the property. I plan to sleep, watch tv or movies & rest until the baby comes back. Then baking a ham to have dinner at my dad's house. It's our first day off since Valentines Day. (Our next day off will be Memorial Day)

I took DGS to see the Easter bunny:
