Some in our family have raised the question of "how is it determined when we celebrate Easter?" I know that our family has inquiry minds. So here is the answer: This is the earliest date for Easter since 1912, and it won't be this early again until 2228. We celebrate Easter based on the Jewish Passover, and the traditional Jewish calendar is based on the lunar month. Each year Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the Spring Equinox, or first day of Spring, which is March 20th or 21St. So know you now. We are looking forward to our family Easter party. Can't wait to see the little kids. See you all soon.

Oh, yeah. I'll be able to remember that. Whatever!?! I guess I'll have to rely on a calendar to tell me when it's going to be from year to year. Thanks anyways for the info!
I was just thinking today how strange it is that it is St Patty's today and Easter on Sunday. Doesn't matter to me I will party any time.
I'm so glad you posted this. We were wondering what was going on!
