Easter

 

I boiled some eggs and RJ helped the girls color them while I was at the eye doctor.  I really liked the tie dyed looking ones.

I bought the girls matching dresses that looked like they had cap sleeves.  When they arrived, I was worried that it would just look like a big shoulder strap so I made little pink cap sleeves.  In the end, I think they would have been fine without.

We bought Hunter a Sunday outfit as well and RJ taught him how to tie a tie.

We hid the baskets that also contained a chocolate bunny.  The kids struggled to find them and had to receive one or two clues.  The girls were head over heels about their matching dresses but Hunter felt that his basket left something to be desired.  I told Hunter that Easter is about the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  What better gift to receive than something to worship him in on Sunday’s? 

RJ wanted to take the kids outside to get some pictures.  Since I hadn’t gotten myself ready for church yet, I took their pictures.

They are a handsome bunch!

We were invited to our friends the Heroux’s for dinner.  They set up a fun Easter egg hunt for the kids (which is why we didn’t do candy filled eggs at our house).  They made out well with plenty of candy and money! 

After the hunt, we sat down and each read one of 12 eggs that contained a scripture and an object (ie. 30 pieces of silver, nail, linen cloth and ultimately an empty egg).

Dinner was delicious and we had a great time. 

We love EASTER.
