Easter

This coming Sunday 12th April is Easter Day. Today at work mama's big boss distributed some easter eggs for everybody.. maybe he has had a visit from Easter bunny during the weekend kot?? hehehe... I wonder why people celebrate Easter?? As far as I know Easter has something to do with bunny rabbit and eggs.. but why ehh?? So i did a little research and this is what i found...
"Easter is the oldest and most important Christian festival, marking the end of the fasting season of Lent and the death, on Good (derived from God's) Friday and resurrection of Jesus Christ, on Easter Sunday. It has deeper and more complex associations than Christmas, particularly in the Orthodox Christian world. There are many customs and traditions associated with Easter which, like most other holiday and feast days, are derived from a combination of both Jewish lore and pre-Christian and pagan practices. It is named after Eostre, the goddess of fertility and birth, worshipped by first-century pagans at the vernal equinox, who believed she would bless both their families and their crops. Christian missionaries saw this celebration took place around the time of the resurrection of Christ, so they adopted Easter as a Christian holiday to increase conversion"
La.. ye ke? Tak pernah tahu pun... masyallah. Tak sangka plak sebab ni dia orang celebrate Easter.

Anyway, last week papa's friend Sonia gives the kids three chocolaty Easter Eggs. Three BIG one! It's all gone now.. we sure do enjoyed the eggs, but we're not celebrating EASTER for sure!!

Nak tengok the BIG EASTER EGGS? Tada.... besar kan? But it's hollow inside.. kalau everything chocolate.. tak habis makan rasanya...

With some extra little eggs inside

How the eggs look like...
