Easter Expenses?
15
Thu, 04-09-2009 - 1:38pm

I don't know whose thread I am stealing. Sorry, hehehee. I just know I have a pile of expenses this weekend for Easter and I want to List them to Vent!!

Ok:

Bunny supplies $30?
I am not doing the dinner but I am bringing a dish $15.
We are going out two nights $100 I think.
Beer(not sure if this will be enough or not)not just for me either LOL $40.

All of these expenses were sorta planned, although not all, and I am even working a few days during all of this. It never ends it seems. *sigh*

I'm, um, a holiday person. I always host the dinners and for Easter I fill hundreds of eggs for our backyard egg hunt and fill baskets with small gifts more so than goodies. I know this about myself and plan accordingly, so I was well budgeted for Easter, but I host a lot of people so it adds up.

We have five children and about 15 for dinner most years (counting the seven of us) ...

baskets: $70
egg hunt candy (we stuff it in those plastic eggs): $20
meals (breakfast, appetizers, dinner, dessert): $100

Our family holiday traditions are worth every penny!

We just got back from the grocery store where we bought the fixin's for my husband's killer Avacado dip $20 and a small thing of tulips to bring over to my mom's $7.

So $27 at the grocery store plus $10 at the kids bookstore to get an Easter book for my niece.

So we lucked out with a relatively cheap Easter Weekend this year.

happy Easter to all!
