Easter without the fam
I am sitting in my dorm room on the saturday before Easter and will be here for most of tomorrow as well. I wanted nothing more than to go home to Pennsylvania for Easter, but I couldn't figure out a way to get up to East Carolina University where my cousin goes to catch a ride with her. Easter is a pretty big holiday in my family, there is always a huge egg hunt on the farm with our family and friends. There are different age groups who look for different eggs, and then everybody gets together after all the eggs are found, except the three big eggs that my grandfather with a little help from my uncle and cousin have hidden somewhere around the farm. Then Hal my grandfather tell everyone where to start looking for the eggs and a bunch of crazy kids and teenagers start running around looking to find the jackpot. The first of the two usually has a twenty dollar bill, the second a fifty and the third, a hundred dollar bill. I have never been the one to find any big egg, but I do manage to have a great time no matter what the outcome is and thats one thing about hanging out with my family, I will always have a good time no matter what happens because I love everyone in my family and they all fell the exact same way. After the egg hunt we go out to dinner with my other family on my dads side and have an amazing dinner at Greenville CC. Easter is so much fun even though I won't be there for it this year I will be thinking about all my family and ill try and have a good time down here.
