Easter In Australia

Ok, here's the Easter story in AU. I really wanted to dye eggs so I went out to hunt down what I would need in the form this country puts it out. The conclusion to the search ended with a box of paints and a dozen eggs. We had to paint our eggs because eggs only come in one color here - brown. I don't even think they know what easter egg dye is...at least the little neighbor girl I asked didn't. It was good though. Erin, Will, David and I had a ball painting eggs together. Both of the boys dropped the eggs they did and so were a bit frusterated:) David also painted his white before decorating it because he said decorating a brown egg just didn't feel right. It was a good time.

We also took braided bread to the neighbor, and the video store man and invited them to church. They didn't come but we had good talks with them so...seed planted...or at least soil tilled.

Easter Sunday we had church but we did have a big lunch together and watched Passion of the Christ. That was intense! That movie is always an eye opener. Before the movie though I cooked my first Ham. It turned out ok thanks to allrecipes.com.

So that was Easter in AU. Oh, I did make easter shoe boxes for David, Will, & Erin. That was fun!!!! Thank you Brenda for the candy you sent us!!! It was our easter candy and we're still munching on it.
