Easter is for family and crawfish, lots and lots of crawfish. Easter has been my favorite holiday for as long as I can remember. Layers of reasons for my favorite holiday but the high points are the giant family gathering, my favorite food (crawfish), and the annual egg hunt. This isn’t an ordinary egg hunt, this is intense people. Like all is fair in love, war, and egg hunting in our family. And if you bring a date who doesn’t get into it thinking egg hunting is for kids and it’s lame, HE IS GONE! Easter is the final bar to jump over to determine if you’re going to stick around in our family (in hubs case it was also the first family meeting and he passed with flying colors). Making it the perfect holiday for my competive juices.
After our usual family Easter event we made a stop at BassPro to further my fishing education and then headed home. We got the fishing poles out and what do you know, fish like crawfish for Easter too! I caught a 4 pound 10 ounce bass using a crawfish bait! I’m becoming quite skilled. Alright that’s a complete lie. I have zero aim. I have zero hand eye coordination to release the reel at the right time so it goes far. And I have zero clue which baits are supposed to do what. But I’m having a darn fun time learning something from hubs!

P.S. I’m quite pleased with my gardening skills growing this beautiful rose!
