On Friday we headed out to the desert to have a little picnic, and in Grandma R fashion...an Easter egg hunt. Grandma R is the Queen of Easter egg hunts. She loves them. It is sad that she missed this one. The girls had a fun time. Dad learned that he can't hide the eggs quite so hard!
Little H didn't get to hunt for eggs, but she had fun watching the sisters.
We e-mailed the Easter bunny this year and asked him if he would start coming on Saturday, so we could spend more time on Sunday talking about Jesus and the Resurrection.
The Easter bunny always hides the girls baskets. It took them awhile to find them this year. The older the girls get the harder it gets to find their baskets. They got a fun new spring outfit and these cool shades along with some Easter candy.
Saturday afternoon we had fun decorating some boiled eggs. The girls were having so much fun that we dyed some more eggs too. We could have gone completely crazy and dyed all 6 dozen eggs we had in the fridge, but we contained our excitement and only dyed one dozen.
I guess we were having too much fun and excitement because by Sunday morning all the girls were flipping out, over emotional, and uncooperative, so this is the only picture we got of them in their new Easter dresses.
Sunday slipped by too fast and we didn't do some of the things we had planned, so we may be doing Easter stuff for Family Home Evening tonight too. I think 4 days of Easter will just about wear me out!
I hope you all had a Happy Easter!
I like the e-mail idea. I think we may borrow that one. How fun to have the egg hunt in the desert! You two are such a fun couple!
ReplyDeleteAlso, as a side note...we are so similar. The outfits your dd's got from the EB, A has the same one as M and T has the same blue one in pink! We are so the same! The girls dresses turned out SO cute! You did a great job!
Looks like great fun, except H doesn't look too happy in her dress.
ReplyDeleteWe had a Cadbury egg and visited Grandpa B. Not too much excitement around here with out the kids.
Happy Easter (all four days of it)!
We didn't do much here. I almost emailed the easter bunny to tell him not to come since there was so much fighting this last week. I am glad you had such a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour girls are all getting so big. Great pictures! I hope we see you soon.
