Not sure how the weekend disappeared but it did.
We had an extra day's holiday as 25th April is our ANZAC day, which commerates our soldiers who have died in war. It happened to fall on Easter Monday so we were given an extra day.
Anyway Friday, Lynn, Kieron and Rhys came over for Easter Buns. (No photos.) Jay was here too. He went home in the arvo, (afternoon). Saturday afternoon I went and saw Max and Sam to deliver Easter Eggs, and books.
Ethan with his presents, quickly got into the Easter Rabbit. This was on MOnday.
Jayden, not a very good picture with his Star Wars Books.
Liam getting into his Easter parcels.
Cinders thinks she is a bird, don't think I have posted this before, this is out in the carport.
And Demi has decided that now the nights are colder she will start using her igloos again.
This is one of the desks in my office. (I have three by the way.) You have motivated me to start cleaning it up. Will post progressive photos. Who knows how long it will take me ;D
I also lashed out and decided to buy new shelves for this display. Not a good photos as there is the reflection in the glass. Might try later to take from a different angle, but am tired now. One of the shelves was broken and the others were not well cut. The edges were rough and sharp in places. Didn't cost that much, so am sorry I didn't do it sooner. Never mind done now. Will be able to get out a few of my decorations that have been put away.
Hope the week has been good to you. Hugs and kisses.

We have the Friday and Monday free of work around Easter weekend every year, but 'cos the place of the weekend varies, it's sometimes really early and sometimes this late as it was this year. Have never understood why it has to be a "moving" thing, though. You don't change the place of Christmas Eve for example, why Easter then? Funny somehow.
Your Easter looks a lot like Christmas, though. ;) Giving gifts to the kids etc. We only eat chocolate eggs that may or may not have a surprise inside. And at Easter we eat lamb, make birdnests and some mämmi (rye pudding) with cream-milk or vanillacream. Some of the families eat also paskha, but in my family we have never done that. This tradition is now coming more and more at use here from Russia. Do you have some special food that relates to Easter?
Cinders knows how to mould a good place out of leafs. Soft and comfy. :) And the igloos (as well as all cavie things around house, like cardboard boxes) are in a lot of use here in the winter time, too. Mostly too hot in the summer.
Feels good to know I'm not the only one fighting with the need of putting things at their places. :D I've not yet reached my office table in the yard house, but you'll see that at some point when I have other things sorted out before. Loads of work left.
The display on glass shelves looks lovely! Sorry to hear there was some broken ones, too. But you know it, others don't. :)
Lot of flu around here, but we've been now healthy. Hope it will stay so, too. Moving towards Labour Day celebrations (this weekend) now and it's said it will be snowing (like many earlier years). It will melt soon, that's sure, but hoping it doesn't bring too cold weathers for the plants outside have started to grow and they don't like to froze again...
Have a great end of the week! Lots of hugs and kisses!
I believe Easter changes because of the full moon phases. Don't understand it fully, but something to do with the start of Lent.
We don't have special food, but are supposed to eat fish and no meat on Good Friday, but as I don't consider myself a Christian, I don't observe that rule. I think I read somewhere that it only started during the world war, not sure if it was 1st or 2nd.
Keep well and lots of hugs and kisses coming back your way.
