I cannot wait until Sunday. I love Easter for so many reasons. I happen to be a believer so Sunday is quite spiritual to me and will be very soul filling. I have much to be grateful for. I am also a big fan of food and the Easter Sunday meal of ham, taters and all the fixins will be a treat for the tummy not to mention all the chocolate eggs and bunnies that will find their final resting place in my belly. The thing I am most looking forward to though is the faces of the grandchildren. This is my granddaughter Kirzi's first Easter and I cannot wait to see her with her first Easter basket and my grandson Zayden will get to help his big brother Zander plant the candy garden.

Last year we started a new tradition at the house. The night before Easter the kids go out in the yard and plant jelly beans in the dirt with hopes of it growing into real candy by morning. Last year Zander was blown away to wake up and look outside and see that the beans he had planted "bloomed" into suckers and chocolate eggs and all sorts of delicious candy. He grabbed his basket and went out to collect the harvest. Getting to see the look of joy on his face as he filled his basket was so priceless. I can't wait to see both little guys farm the candy this year. If you are looking for a new fun thing to do this Easter, try the candy garden, it was a big hit at our house.
