Easter-ly things to do [Family and Parenting]
I don't know about you but Easter weekend has almost taken me by surprise. I knew it was coming. I have been buying goodies to fill Easter baskets for the kids. We've colored eggs. I have even bought a ham for dinner. But today, Good Friday, it HIT me. <
Easter hats for the kiddos [Fashion]
Unique Surroundings has the cutest Easter hats for kids. I took my little one there and tried them all on - of course, she chose the pinkest hat of the bunch. They range in cost between $11 and $17 and can be customized to match her Easter dress. They also sell Derby hats - which I'll profile in a separate post.
Easter, the other Derby event [Family and parenting]
Between a twenty-three minute fireworks display and the anticipation of the most exciting two-minutes in sports, it's easy for Easter to creep up on us in Louisville. Let's face it, holy week sometimes takes a back-seat when you live in the Derby City. With hats, hand-bags, and horses on the brain, it's hard to honor the bunny that inevitably will be coming to town next Saturday.
Blankenbaker or Broadway? Southeast Christian's Easter Pageant rises to glory [Theater]
The spectacle of Southeast Christian’s Easter Pageant is unlike anything I’ve ever witnessed. The production values rival (if not surpass) that of most Broadway musicals; and with seating for over 7,500 patrons, the venue itself is something to behold.
The story begins over 2,000 years ago when an angel visits a young virgin girl named Mary. The angel tells Mary that she is going to give birth to…
Well, I’ll stop there.
Southeast Christian's Easter Pageant takes the stage for the final time [theater]
Since 1995, the Louisville community has witnessed an Easter pageant like no other. This year marks the final year of the Southeast Christian Classic Easter Pageant.
The Pageant, as you might imagine, follows the story of Jesus, from birth to resurrection. But, Southeast Christian, as in everything else, depicts that story on a grand scale.
Parsnip Pete: A scarce sight in Louisville stores
After stumbling on a blog posted in the spring of 2009 by someone lamenting the scarcity in New Jersey of beloved 7-oz. milk chocolate bunny Parsnip Pete, I started thinking such a retail travesty could never happen in Louisville. Not in our city. Surely, this delicious Easter treat, a traditional favorite among hollow milk chocolate bunny fans for years, has got to still be well-stocked in area stores. It pains me to say that I was mistaken.
Eggstravaganza! at the Louisville Zoo on Easter Sunday
This weekend, Sunday April 4th from 11 am- 4 pm, the Louisville Zoo (1100 Trevilian Way) is hosting an Easter party to celebrate some of the most spectacular residents of the zoo, the egg-laying animals, at the Zoo’s Eggstravaganza 2010!
Cheating to assemble your child's Easter basket?
OK, look: I'm not going to blame you if you don't dress up like the Easter bunny for the 18th annual Frankfort Avenue Easter Parade. (Who knows where those pictures would end up, right?) That said, you really should check out the parade, which begins 11:30 a.m. Saturday in front of St. Mark's Episcopal Church (2822 Frankfort Ave.) and makes its way down Frankfort Avenue, from Stilz to Haldeman avenues. Your kids should love it.
Corpse exhibit, pasta party, parade are among Easter weekend highlights
