Most of the kids went right by this group of eggs multiple times and never saw them.
We didn't get the outfits that I had ordered for Easter, so we had to go with an alternate plan.
When I was going to take the boys' picture, I realized that there was a slight slope and Andy was on the down hill side, so I had them switch places. (compare their heights to each other in the picture with all 4 kids!)
We have a few things that we like to do every year at Easter time. We were able to spread them out a little this year with having the extra day off due to the ice. This was especially helpful to me as Emily's birthday is Tuesday and I was doing things to get ready for her birthday party yesterday besides doing Easter things.
Thursday:
Emily organized a small indoor egg hunt in my bedroom (since it was icy outside):
We dyed eggs:
Will had to eat one of his right away
Friday:
Baked three cakes for Emily's birthday party:
Make Jello eggs:
We also made some Jello Jigglers with a mold
Saturday:
Unmold the Jello Eggs:
We also had the extended family Easter dinner (and Emily's birthday party which I'll post pictures for later.)
Sunday:
Easter Baskets (which come from Mom & Dad):
The kids have always gotten a stuffed bunny in their baskets, but this year, I also gave them some other small toys as well
Making their new LEGO sets
Church:
This year, I made shirts and bottoms for all 4 kids
My stair steps aren't really steps anymore!

Easter Egg Hunt:
When it was so cold on Thursday, I thought we'd have a really cold Easter, but it turned out to be a beautiful day in the mid 60's.
Our poinsettia thinks it should be blooming for Easter, apparently!
