For my friends who’ll be spending today in church… 🙂

I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it to church, just depends on how the belly is holding up from Friday and how I’m feeling in general. I want to go, though-I love Easter Sunday, so as long as I’m not falling apart…

And for those who are more about the chocolate-I can totally dig chocolate (want some now, need some now…)

BTW…for the curious, wondered why Easter is later some years than others?  It has to do with the moon. 🙂  This comes from St James News**

Twice each year the sun shines directly on the equator and the length of day and night are nearly equal everywhere in the world. These dates are March 21st and September 21st.  They are known as the vernal (or spring) equinox and autumnal (or fall) equinox.
The vernal equinox coincides with Easter and  the special days that are related to it. They are days that do not fall on a fixed calendar day: Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Pentecost….
In 325 A.D. The Council of Nicaea established that Easter would be held on the first Sunday after the first full moon occurring on or after the vernal equinox. Easter is delayed one full week if the full moon is on Sunday, which decreases the chances of it falling on the same day as the Jewish Passover.
The latest date for Easter is April 25th, so you can see it comes pretty close to that this year, April 24th. This last occurred in 1943 and won’t happen again until 2028. The earliest date for Easter is March 22nd. This last occurred in 1818 and won’t happen again until 2285.

I kinda like it when Easter is bit later than a bit earlier.
