EGGactly What We Needed

Sorry, I couldn't resist the title.  It's pretty poor taste, but it makes me smile.  And it's true.  Friday McKenna had some friends over to play.  And in an effort to make up for the fact that I wouldn't let the friends sleep over the night before I decided that we would all dye eggs together.  I think I dyed 4 dozen eggs and by the time we were set up and ready to go we had at least 15 different colors to choose from.   After 8 years of doing these particular crafts I have smartened up a bit and set the kids up on a tablecloth in the garage.  It worked out perfectly and they all had a blast.

There might be more dye on Coop's hands than on the eggs!  Even before we started he said that he couldn't wait to make a yellow egg.

Today we attended the annual Easter Egg hunt at the fire company.  As always, a good time was had by all.  McKenna is an old pro by now but she still took it the egg finding very seriously.

Kinley really enjoyed watching all the kids running around.  Her little legs and arms were going the whole time.

Looks like the Easter Bunny came a little early this year!  I knew Kinley's basket was big but I never thought she would actually fit in it at 7 months old.   Don't you just love her "Some Bunny Loves Me Shirt".  

And so now we wait for that elusive Easter Bunny to make a stop by our house tonight.  But we should really remember the true meaning of Easter Sunday.  

 

 John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
