Easter Sunday

Today is the big Easter day in the US. Easter Sunday. For us, who have been "celebrating" since Thursday, we're kind of done with Easter by today (and being Swedish - we actually have one more day to go - tomorrow is a holiday too - Annandag Påsk, second day of Easter...).

About half the stores are closed today, which is really unusual here. It only happens a few times a year.

We thought we were going to do a more "American" Easter this year - include a visit to the Easter Bunny, and doing a little egg hunt.

But we were too busy and ended up with Swedish Easter witches, European paper eggs filled with candy and "Easter twigs" (påskris). Again. Next year...

Ni verkar ha haft en riktigt fullspäckad påsk! :-)

Ah vilken läcker bild på ett svenskt påskägg med påskgodis. Läste i DN att detta är största godishelgen i Sverige och det kan man fatta.
