Easter in China

While Easter goes relatively unnoticed by the Chinese, we are enjoying a three day weekend due to the Chinese holiday of Qing Ming Jie (or Tomb Sweeping Day). The Chinese visit their family graves and clean them of weeds and dirt. They also set out money and food for the spirits.

However, the Easter Bunny does come in China for those who believe! This morning the kids found chocolate in their baskets and candy filled eggs hid in new and exciting places in the house! After 12 years of finding eggs at our old house, this was a new adventure!



We also enjoyed watching the giant Easter egg hunt at the school for our community (about 60 kids participated) and we ate a yummy Easter brunch at our community cafe.





Kiana and Kevin helped hide 800 (!) eggs for the hunt!!
