Easter Weekend Highlights



Dying Eggs

Mom boiled 2 dozen eggs, but that was not enough. Grandma had to boil a dozen more to satisfy the artists at work. We used crayons to color designs on the eggs and then dyed them. We had to watch Josh because he liked moving the eggs from one color to the next. Joseph didn't mind getting his hands dirty, but Emily used the spoons to get her eggs out.







The Big Egg Hunt


Everyone was assigned eggs colors to find. Emily and Joseph stuck to their colors but Josh found one of Emily's eggs and got to it first. It was lucky for Joseph and Emily that their eggs were a little harder to find or Josh would have had them all.















Easter Goodies

Grandma got the kids each a new outfit and a towel.
Easter Morning the Easter Bunny left them each a new toy. The boys got transformers and Emily got a new Miley Cyrus Barbie, and lets not forget about the candy.







And a big bottle of bubbles for everyone.



The boys were wired form the sugar the entire day, but we did manage to get a little bit of real food in them from the yummy Easter dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Looks like a fun-filled weekend. We did four dozen this year. We never do that many and the kids could have done more I am sure. That's a lot of eggs to find. So, fun!!!

Looks like the hunt was a success. Josh seems on his way to be ready for a cut throat one.

I love dying Easter eggs. We also found peeps egg decorating kits. They were less messy, way cute and kept Lauren busy for an hour!

Did Emily get her hair cut? It's really cute in those pictures!
