Easter always reminds me of my sis, Karalee. Why? Because she loves springtime. She loves everything about it, in fact, she celebrates a "make-believe" birthday in April because her real birthday is in Jan. and she doesn't like winter or being cold. She loves the way the sun warms the earth and that the animals are out, and everything is blooming with life. The traditions that go along with Easter and the true meaning of the holiday are why I like it.
We do all of the norms: coloring and hiding eggs, buying new dresses, and having Easter dinner. My mom and dad started a tradition many years ago of having an egg hunt at their house. They have prize eggs and money eggs for everyone who comes. They even have an adult money egg hunt and this year the top egg had $50 in it! Seriously! You should see us hunting these eggs. My dad makes it his mission to hide them ever so sneaky, so sometimes we have to be given clues so we can find them. It's always a great time, even when we only get the $5 egg! Oh well, maybe next year!
