Hoppy Easter

My daughter is very excited about Easter which is natural at her age (6), but her excitement was dampened by a case of strep throat recently.  Hopefully, she will be all better by Easter and, since she is in Catholic school, she has the week after Easter off and should definitely be recovered by then.  I'm planning our annual Easter Egg hunt where I hide eggs filled with toys and candy around the house on Easter morning (I won't hide any real eggs, although we will color them.  The plastic eggs are safer to hide in case some are not discovered (when real ones go bad, they tend to smell).  We will also be spending time with family, and she will not doubt get lots of baskets, candy, and small Easter toys.

In Second Life, I've already hosted two Easter parties -- one for my Rainbow Gardens Pet Memorial Center and one for my neighbors on Seahorse Isle.  It was nice to interchange decorations and dance balls, althoughI had enough room to set up an egg hunt on Seahorse and enough prims for a 10-person bunny hunt line dance.  Most people came with ears and tails, and we even had one avatar bunny.  It was a lot of fun.

Throughout the month, I've also participated in SL egg hunts sponsored by some shops and enjoyed visiting Easter Town where I  had the chance to race on the back of a Peep and float in an Easter eggshell (where else but in SL could you do that?) and also hunt eggs and bunny hop.

Whatever you do in rl or sl to celebrate Easter, have a "Hoppy" one!
