This year I bought a bunny choc for onr, an egg for another, a bunny for OH as usual and an egg for father in law.
I decided not to buy chocolate for the grandies and nieces as they have enough...and I refuse to substitute $ or gifts. Now I feel so bad.... but the parents didn't want me to anyway. 😞

Once a year - I have always bought jumpers for my kids with 1 egg as they got plenty from others. I now buy pjs for the grandson and an egg. Still buy some choc for the grown ups - usually choc bars that I know they like. I bought them 4 bags of assorted small eggs, 8 twirls and a couple of other bars I forget the name of.
Our daughter bought us eggs (not needed) and a pair of towels.
Our grand-daughter is due today so hoping we soon get an extra special Easter bunny.

My grandies get a egg each from me and 3yr. old granddaughter I bought her a doll she wanted and my grandson, I gave him money for a couple of sessions of learning different science things at local tafe. for kids during the school holidays here.....
Gave OH a block of his favourite chocolate......
They are all happy with that.

I bought some choc mint slices for my son yesterday and when he helped put the shopping away he pulled them out and said thanks.... I told him that is all he is getting so if he opened them there would be nothing for Sunday....
so today he gets nothing...

Easter Sunday is a big deal at my parents house so al the kids gets loaded up with Easter Eggs and then we do an easter egg hunt after lunch for the 8 or so nephews/neices/cousins.
One of the adults always thinks it's a good idea to contribute to the lunch by bringing with a chocolate cake just in case we don't have enough.
So it's a big chocolate for us. 😄

My kids are coming over for Easter lunch at 2pm today. I've got crackers and dips, Foccacia toasted with avocado, onion, a good soft cheese, spinach leaves, vine tomatoes and an Apple Crumble with custard for dessert.
I still buy them Easter Eggs but we don't hunt for them 😐

I don't understand why some buy gifts (pyjamas and stuff) at easter.?:|
I'm not critising or anything, it's just something I had never encountered before someone here mentioned it a few years back.
