For me since I am no longer living at home it makes a nice excuse to go over to the house for a family meal together. It is also nice for my niece since she can enjoy all the Easter goodies like me and my sister got to when we were kids my mom always had a way of making all the holidays special for us kids. what is your favorite part of the Easter holiday?

It is nice as long as you take that time and enjoy yourself and if you have the chance your time with the family it can be a nice excuse to get together for a family meal.

I don't have any in particular. But the best part of the easter holiday was having time with myself which I never had because i'm too busy with my works. Thanks God I have time.

I think they get off of school for it here the one day they were letting them out of school around noon and that made for some fun traffic at the middle of the day, but for me the fun is seeing my niece running around after the eggs.

My favorite part of Easter is the Easter church services. I love to hear how Jesus took the sins of the world upon himself so that we may live. Of course it is hard to hear all the details but it moves me deeply to know someone loved the world so much He would make that kind of scarifice. Who loves like that? Of course I also enjoy watching little children enjoy a good Easter Egg Hunt. I bet it makes God Smile to!

yeah it was fun to watch my little niece take part in that today she always loves to run around so she got to see a bunch of kids around her age so that was nice for her and she seemed to have a great time.

I like the plastic eggs with candy, money, or prizes in them when I find them and open them.

It would be nice to find some eggs that had money or prizes in them even if it was for some Easter candy that can always be fun too.

When I was a child my favourite part of Easter was the chocolate eggs Now I like Easter because it gives me the chance to spend some time with my family. A few days ago we had an Easter dinner at my grandmother's. We usually have dinner at my parents', but this year we decided to celebrate Easter at my grandmother's instead. We had a nice dinner there. My brother and his girlfriend were there as well, they live in a different part of country and we don't meet that often, so it was nice to be together again. Tomorrow my mother-in-law is having an Easter party, and she has invited my brother-in-law, his girlfriend, her cousin, her sister and some of the other people from her family, so we are going to be a lot of people.

I do like peanut butter eggs I don't get to have those very often, but they are really good. We are gonna have a nice family dinner tomorrow as long as I feel well enough to go over as I wasn't feeling too great today not sure if it was the heat of my allergies, but hopefully I'll feel better after a good night's rest.

I like Easter because it lets me spend time with my mom. Sometimes my sister and brother-in-law come down and it's more fun. But not this year. So it'll just be my mom, my roommate (who's Jewish) and me and we're planning on a late lunch.

yeah I like to go over and have a nice meal with the family even though I feel like I am over there more now and see them more now then what I did when I lived there if that is even possible.

When I was little Easter meant searching for a new stuffed bunny. We didn't have a big dinner. By the time I was too old to search for eggs I had become Jewish. Now the best of Easter is The movies. I love King Of Kings. One Easter I took the whole day and night and saw The story of Jesus over and over. Beside King of Kings I have several others and I saw them all back to back. it was great.

yeah I think we all have our memories that made Easter special to us over the years whether it was a family meal or just watching some of our favorite movies that come on television on that day.
