Easter Egg Hunt 2010

You will see pics of new and wonderful friends we're making. Some thru church, some thru homeschool group, some of Lewis' kids. Afterwards, 3 of us homeschool families when to CSA, that's where the girls were racing.

The egg hunt was about a 12 min walk away, it was at a villa for General Dynamics. Now that I've seen a villa, it has completely cleared up the difference between a "flat" and a villa. For starters, it's more than 100 sq feet! ha! Well it had multiple levels, etc, it was quite unique really! All had a great time! We're heading to eat some Egyptian food at our Egyptians friends home....I'm a little uncertain if we say "Happy Easter" to them or what!?! It is a Pharaonic Holiday in Egypt right now - you all may enjoy that bit of history ;)

They celebrate "spring" and it's from the beginning of recorded history. Sham el Niseem. Celebration of spring basically :-) This is a 3 day "holy" weekend. How that holiday from Pharaonic pagan holiday became a monotheistic HOLY day is beyond my understanding? I realize Christians celebrate pagan holidays such as Halloween, but...it's not considered "holy" so anyway, interesting!
