We spent the Easter holiday away from home in April of 2015. The day was bright and sunny, warm enough for sundresses. We were at some kind of outdoor event on a patio, under big blue umbrellas, surrounded by lots of other families also celebrating.

The main attraction for the kids was, of course, the Easter Bunny. This one wore a plaid vest and had a nametag that read "Baxter." The girls were very excited to meet him, and we spent a good amount of time getting photos with him as he made his way through the crowd.

There was a bit of initial shyness, but they warmed up pretty quickly. Looking back at these photos, it's just a simple, classic holiday scene. Everyone is milling around, kids are posing with a giant bunny, and the sun is shining. It was a nice, low-key way to mark the holiday while we were traveling.
