At Home Easter Ideas

/

Anyone else wake up today only to remember that Easter is a few days away? It’s crazy how fast it has snuck up, now that we’re going to be spending it at home. This Easter we have decided to make it different from our everyday quarantine life. Our plan is to get takeout from a local restaurant, dress up, live-stream Easter service and connect with our family over Zoom. With everything that is happening in the world, I am so excited to share some ways you can still make Easter fun and filled with community while socially distancing.
