Easter

So Easter Sunday was celebrated just a little differently from all the Easters before. I was in Bodrum with the exchange students both Saturday and Sunday morning and so there wasn't any church or getting up early or anything like that. But, it was fun in a different way. Annie and Riad were staying the night at my house and Annie knew all about Easter, being from the US. We put on summer dresses and at dinner we told my family that it was Easter. They were really intrigued and my sister mentioned that she wanted to dye eggs as I'd told her about that before. We boiled some eggs, but first my family took us out to eat Turkish style waffles. Then, we went back to my house and decorated eggs. It was both Riad's and my family's first Easter and I think they liked it. I was really happy that we got to decorate the eggs and that I had friends to celebrate with :)
