The story of the first Passover is in Exodus 12:21-28. The story is tightly coupled to the 10 plagues that God sent upon the Egyptians to force them to let the Israelites go. The final plague was the death of the firstborn, and the purpose of the Passover sacrifice was to provide the blood to mark the houses of the Israelites so that they would not be subject to this plague. It was also a final meal at home prior to setting out on the exodus. The second and subsequent Passovers were commemorations of the first one, so they could be seen as celebrations or at least memorials.
