Easter(s)

Vera and Sasha are lucky enough to come from one family that celebrates regular Easter, and another that celebrates Russian Easter (or "Pascha" ... for an explanation on why Russian Easter is different, please look here).  This means, more often than not, TWO Easters.  With twice the egg-hunts, and twice the candy.  Sometimes the two Easters are separated by a few weeks, but this year, they were on adjacent weekends, and so we celebrated (and ate candy) for two weeks straight.  Here are some pictures.  
"Regular" Easter at Grandma and Grandpa's house.  We forgot our camera, so please excuse the iPhone pics.  There were 36 eggs hidden.  There was one girl.  Ready, set, CANDY!!!!

 
Pascha:  We spent the weekend at my parents' house, with my brother and his family.  The kids had a blast together.  Thanks to my sister-in-law for most of these pictures... although we didn't forget our camera this time, we did forget to actually use it most of the time.
