Easter 2013!

Happy Easter Sunday!  This post has a lot of pictures and a break-down of our Easter festivities!

 

EGG-COLORING:

On Thursday the girls and I colored 4 dozen eggs!  It was both messy and comical.  Shyla wanted to take her time with each egg.  Harper, ever the brute, wanted to see how quickly she could color the eggs and also how many eggs she could smash into each bowl of color.  It got messy fast!  In fact, I spilled the bowl of blue dye before I even got it to their table and it was all downhill from there!  Stevie came home from work as we were finishing up, but not quite to the "clean-up" stage, with a look of shock on his face!

 

GETTING READY FOR THE EASTER BUNNY:
While Stevie and I were at Wicked on Saturday night, my parents helped the girls prepare for the Easter Bunny.  They set out (and apparently ate) carrots, left 1 dozen eggs and empty basket.  They were hopeful that the bunny would hide the eggs for them and fill their baskets.

EASTER BUNNY COMES TO OUR HOUSE!
He did stop by our house!  He did hide the eggs!  And he filled their baskets and left a nice note!

EASTER AT GRANDMA & GRANDPA'S:
Then we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for brunch and where the Easter Bunny had also visited!  The kids each got Easter baskets and then we headed out for a big egg hunt which included a special egg for each child.

All in all, a very blessed day, season and family!
