April Fools Easter

After church, Dwayne's kids and grandchildren gathered together a Carla's house for a cold but fun celebration of Easter.  Steamers flying horizontal with the ground whipped in the wind as they hung from the tree limbs and pinwheels spun furiously as snow fell on this April Fools Easter.  We stayed indoors to keep warm but did not let the weather ruin our festivities.  Dinner was a spiral ham, scalped potatoes, green bean casserole, cucumber salad, ambrosia, Hawaiian rolls, Reisling wine and for dessert, the lamb cake.  The Easter egg hunt was conducted indoors with the children taking turns hiding each others' eggs.  This was a big hit with the kids.  They also engaged in a "crack the egg" game which involved tapping the ends of hard boiled eggs against someone else's hard boiled egg to see which egg would crack first.  The winner of the game was the person whose egg was cracked no more than once.  We kept a roaring fire going in the fireplace to provided warmth and it seemed appropriate due to the falling snow outside.  Hopefully, next Easter will be sunny and warmer.
