Easter

Isn't easter a chocolate feast for the kids!!!!!
Three very happy children on Easter Sunday after their Easter Hunt.  We had a big cookup breakfast with the family.  Pancakes, bacon & eggs and our family secret recipe of chilli beans. (although they were altered a bit to include a curry flavour)  I think this family recipe gets added to with each generation.  But it still tastes very nice.  Afterwards DIL and I went along to the movies to see The Blind Side, the movie that Sandra Bullock received an oscar for.  She definetly deserved this as she played an excellent part.  A lovely movie to go and see and its a true story also.  So if you would like to spend some time out seeing a movie I would highly recommend this one. It has my tick of approval.  In the evening we went along to the Redlands Easter Family Festival which was hosted by the combined Churches in the Redlands to celebrate the Easter story of Jesus' death and resurrection.  Everything was free.  Their was donuts, sandwiches, fairy floss, snow cones and sausage sizzles, rides galore and face painting.  Mural painting, entertainment etc.  A very generous gesture by the churches, their helpers and sponsors and the joy was reflected on all the happy faces there.  The true spirit of Easter and I would personally like to thank them.  They have been hosting this event since 1999.  Happy Easter everyone!!!!

Talk again soon

All looks so wonderful! I wonder if I am 'one of the family' when it comes to chili beans recipe? Off to see Blind Side very soon - glad you enjoyed so much! Kinda think you would fancy Gerard Butler, too - nice big arms for great cuddles, lol!
