Have a weird Easter!


Circa 1976; JPX, JSP and sister sit with the creepiest Humpty Dumpty ever at the Enchanted Forest

For me, Easter is a strange holiday. It's apparently a very important religious holiday among some people but we never viewed it as such growing up. In our household Easter meant that we would be hunting for Easter baskets via a series of increasingly challenging clues and wearing our Sunday best while spending time with a few nearby relatives. Any holiday that doesn't involve getting a day off from work is a worthless holiday if you ask me. Stupid Jesus haaaaaaad to come back to life on a Sunday.


JSP always feared the Easter bunny

Oh and talk about weird, my family still hides eggs for the kids. Zeke is the youngest "kid" left, he's 17. Apparently if you're under 30 in my family you get to hunt for Easter eggs.

The Humpty is definitely freaky, but the Easter Bunny has always scared the hell out of me.
