Why is this next Sunday Easter?

Think back to studying about the positions of Earth, the moon and what causes the seasons. Well, everything comes together this week. Today- Tuesday,  March 22, is the full moon. Sunday was the Vernal Equinox. So the first Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox is Easter. If you don't remember what the vernal equinox is then check out the previous post. Just some science in real life. 

Happy Spring Break now that spring is "sprung"!!
