We actually got to go to an Easter egg hunt, and the kids used vegetable shortening tubs for Easter-egg baskets.
We visited a church for the first time, and Tessa and Jack spontaneously joined the children's choir singing songs they didn't know, doing choreography they hadn't practiced, in front of about 300 people they'd never seen before!
Tessa wore a new dress her grandmother gave her for her birthday, and matched it with some lovely orange Ugandan $1.50 shoes.
Forgetting to plan a fancy Easter meal, I served my family leftovers for lunch and popcorn for dinner (we did eat pretty well at the Easter egg hunt)!
We dyed hard-boiled brown eggs with white yolks. Orange and yellow did not show up, so we only had pink, green, and blue.
Easter weekend includes national holidays Friday, Sunday, and Monday so Dusty was off, but the kids and I carried on with home schooling.
And finally, we got some things done around the house, including hanging our hammock, which the kids see as a playground. Tessa apparently bit the hammock (why?), and Jack jerked it out of her mouth - along with her not-very-loose top tooth. It's great having a gap-toothed kid around these days! Congrats, Tessa!
