After 10:45 Mass (very crowded!) we went over to the Gagnon Estate for an Easter egg hunt and Easter dinner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a bit of a tradition – we’ve gone to the Gagnon’s for quite a few Easter days. Two of the six Gagnon’s were not around – Monica is working in France, and Nate was visiting in England and in France. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Philip was in from college and Kathleen is Joe’s age – freshman in HS. The eggs had been painted the day before, by Kathleen, Tim, and two of Tims cousins, Katherine and Luke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easter egg hunts at the Gagnon’s go something like this – <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, this is the<\/u><\/strong> great Easter desert! A coconut flake topped rabbit cake. I still remember when my mother made one – I was probably around kindergarten age. This one has had a good chunk taken out of him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
