Happy Easter!

As you may remember, Easter is my favorite holiday. My family has so many traditions that I look forward to every year.

Easter 2011
 
Along with the happy thoughts of Easter comes some sad ones. Easter always reminds me of my Dzia-Dzia (grandpa in Polish) who passed away. We used to make a huge fruit salad together until he passed away. I carried this tradition on and make it myself. It is something that I would never stop doing and means a lot to me.
My fruit salad!!
 
This dietitian LOVES fruit!
 
My brother and Busia (grandma in Polish) make a lemon coffee cake. My Busia and sister make potato salad. Dad makes ham. Mom makes a lamb out of butter. Then, we take the food to be blessed at church. We have followed these traditions for many years now and I love them!

Easter also means the start of decent weather (usually) which is always a happy time for me.

I wish all of you a wonderful Easter with your families!

    Easter always reminds me of my Busia and Dzia Dzia as well, both of whom have been gone for awhile now. We would always have Easter with them when we were able and they are definitely missed!

    I hope you and your family had a happy and safe Easter holiday!
