Holidays are still interesting. We are still trying how to make them fun and exciting for the children. In the past, we spent them with my brothers and their kids. My kids were finally getting old enough to play and build relationships with their cousins. Then they moved, to SC. Now holidays have changed, no big chaotic family gatherings. I want to be sure they have good memories.
This year we did the usual Egg Hunt at Rose Hill in Robbinsville. Delaney still does not like big hairy creatures. We did our egg decorating and of course, the Easter Bunny egg and basket hunt. After a big breakfast we went to Point Pleasant, NJ..to the boardwalk. It was a beautiful day. Sunny, 70+ degrees. Can't beat it in April! We even put our toes in the sand. Ahhh, summer in April!
I know my brother has done this with his mother in law but I didn't know what to expect. OMG, it was packed like a summer day. We went on rides, had an early dinner/late lunch at Martell's and won some stuffed animals (Aidan got PlipPlop, a Pokemon character!)
It was a great day and if the weather holds out, I think I want to make that our Easter tradition. Apparently we are not alone by the number of people there. Maybe it wasn't a traditional Easter but it was a fun and memorable one.
