Favorite Easter Memories

  1. Early morning Sunrise Services, sitting outside, shivering in the early desert air
  2. Breakfast in the church fellowship hall
  3. Beautiful dresses sewn by my mother
  4. Dying eggs  –the smell of vinegar, writing on eggs with a white crayon, leaving them in the dye a long time to get vivid colors
  5. Hiding and seeking the eggs
  6. The year my dad hid an egg in the rafters of the front porch and it wasn’t found ’til months later
  7. Easter hymns: “Hear the bells ringing they’re singing that we can be born againnnnnnn…”
  8. Imagining the wonder of the women who found the empty tomb
  9. Easter baskets with chocolate and jelly beans and plastic grass
