***UPDATED 3/18/24*** It’s that time of year when flowers, bunnies, chicks, and eggs are popping up EVERYWHERE! Easter is the first holiday of Spring and we celebrate with the Easter Bunny and Easter egg hunts. But most importantly, we celebrate Easter for one reason, and that’s the death & resurrection of Jesus Christ. With all the commercialization of religious holidays, we tend to forget the real meaning. When my kids were growing up, we loved to do crafts.

***UPDATED 3/4/23*** St. Patrick’s Day observes the death of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland.
