Easter 2012

This post is over a year old.  There have been many events happen in the Deschaine household since but I wanted to finish documenting our time overseas.  Hopefully, over the next few months I will find the time to finish blogging about our fantastic time.  Wtihout further ado...here is Easter 2012.

 

We had a wonderful Easter this year.  Even though school is typically held on Sundays, Brian had no school on Sunday or Monday.  The only church service on Easter was the sunrise service, which is held at 6am...a whole 2 and a half hours before BJ normally gets up!  We decided that we would forego the service and have a family devotional instead before breakfast. 

After our devotional and breakfast, we gave BJ his Easter basket.  It took him a while to open it since he wanted to play with everything!

Brian got BJ a bubble gun. He used all the bubbles up in about 2 minutes making this bubble mountain.

We also had an indoor Easter egg hunt. 

BJ was so excited to discover that some of the eggs had chocolate in them!  He got to eat 1 piece of chocolate after the hunt.

For lunch we were invited to our friends' house.  In all, there were 16 of us there for the meal.  We had an AMAZING meal!  We had bacon wrapped pineapple for an appetizer and a baked ham for our meal!  You don't understand!  You CAN NOT get any pork products here.  This meat came from a German butcher in the capital city some 3 hours away.  We were in heaven!!   

BJ and his pal, Kelyn, sat next to each other during the meal.

For dessert we had many options such as pecan pie, coconut custard pie, and apple pie.  BJ opted for the chocolate cupcake! To quote BJ, "Yum.Yum!"
