Winter Wonderland

This year for Easter the weather was perfect - if it had been christmas... It snowed, it was cold and we had to hunt for Easter eggs in the house. But, it was a great weekend and we enjoyed it nonetheless. Easter Monday (a holiday in Germany) the sun actually came out and we went on a wonderful hike in 'Fränkische Schweiz'.


Following my (Eva) family tradition, we colored our Easter Eggs on Good Friday. Quinn was a great help coloring the eggs! ;-)


Quinn searched for Easter Eggs on Easter Sunday - with some help from Daddy!

The Easter Bunny had even left some new toys for Quinn to play with!

On Easter Monday, we went on a hike in 'Fränkische Schweiz'. As a tradition in this area, the women of each village decorate the fountains with Easter Eggs and flowers. A very nice tradition - even nicer when they are not covered with snow!

Quinn was so excited - he wanted to jump into the cold water!



The hike was wonderful and very relaxing! I just wish we had been wearing another layer of clothes. It was so cold!


We hope you all had a Happy Easter!
