Top 10 Easter Traditions

Sunday is Easter so we decided that Easter traditions would be fitting for this week's top ten. As many of you know we love traditions. We feel they are important in unifying the family unit and instilling love and appreciation in the home. Here are a few of them. Enjoy!1. Reading the story of Christ’s Atonement - His suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane, the cruxifiction and especially his resurrection on the third day.
2. The Tomb Was Empty Buscuits - We take a big marshmallow and wrap the buscuit dough around it tightly. Then we dipped it in butter and roll it in cinnamon and sugar. We bake it and when you bite into it it the marshmellow is gone and the buscuit is empty just like the tomb.
3. Saturday Easter Bunny - The Easter Bunny comes on Saturday so we can celebrate Christ’s resurrection on Sunday.
4. Easter Dresses - Pretty in pastel. Obviously not for Scott.
5. Go to church - We love to go and hear the beautiful musical numbers.
6. Chocolate Bunnies - It's Easter and you got to have chocolate. (Even for Scott and Sundy)
7. Easter Egg Hunt - We miss the annual egg hunt Pam threw in Las Vegas for all the neighborhood kids!
8. Dying Eggs - What would Easter be without doing this?
9. Talking to Family - It is always nice to wish them a Happy Easter!
10. Watch Jesus Christ Superstar - Sundy has to do this alone, as Scott does not approve of the movie....

I used to make those marshmallow things all the time! We've always wanted to go to this - maybe next year. =)
