The week before Easter we sat down to color eggs..good thing we only have 3 kids, as it is I think I cooked up 3 dozen eggs! It is fun to see their excitement since I have fond memories of doing it as a kid, the only problem is that Alan and I still like coloring them...so for next year I think I am going to buy some of those fake eggs you can color and we will work on them after the kids go to bed!
Peter couldn't wait, he had to eat one!
We discovered Naomi likes boiled eggs too!
Well except for the yolk...that got thrown on the floor.
The boys were so much less messy this year but we were really surprised with Naomi, she would plop her little egg in and then scoop it right up!
Overall, a few colored fingers and some happy kiddos!
Look at this beauty! Double batch of rolls rising to dinner!
Yum!
We had Conrad and Peter hide the egss for the hunt. Heather suggested we give each kid a color of egg to look for so it made the hunt go so smoothly. No fighting or arguing...the kids even helped each other out with finding them! It was amazing!
Discovering the Easter baskets! It was interesting having Easter and General Conference at the same time. On one hand I think it really helped set the tone for the holiday, but on the other it was kinda weird not to go to church! Speaking of conference, the kiddos did great this year listening to it! I set up a little work table with some fun things to do and they pretty much sat quietly and played. I actually got to listen to some talks!
Daddy's bunny pancakes are always a hit!
I tried a new recipe for Coconut cream pie...it was amazing..I didn't get a before picture, but this was all that was left!
Here is a picture of the kiddos in their Easter outfits! I miss Tower Grove park where I would take pictures of them in the daffodils, but still fun with all our flowering trees.
