Easter

Easter.  Hmmm, we did indeed celebrate Easter... but if I didn't blog about it then did we really celebrate??  ;)

ahem

So... Adaiah got in on the egg dyeing action this year.  Surprisingly we were mess free.  It was an Easter egg miracle. 

notice her shirt.  It's her favorite. 

Joseph had red and blue

Nehemiah had 2 shades of green

and Hannah had pink and purple

I loved how they turned out.  I hoewever do not love how they taste.  Every year I try one, thinking I'm going to like it. Every year Roger laughs at me and says "Why did you eat that?  You know they make you feel sick!"  But I just want to like them!  Oh well. 

 Easter morning we had a special breakfast and had an Easter egg hunt.  I realized that having an Easter egg hunt on Easter was easier when I was a kid because I didn't grow up going to church.  Having an egg hunt, a special b'fast, and getting 4 kids ready for church is a bit much for one morning. :)

 The kids were all assigned a certain color (or colors) of egg to find. 

 This worked out wonderfully.  I was able to hide Joseph's in sneaky places, while placing Adaiah's out in the open. 

And she was happy to find her eggs out in the open. :) 

 After church we headed to a friend's house for lunch.  (It was yummy!)  Adaiah made herself at home in their little pink car.  She's such a girl. :)

 Hannah went fishing.  She loves to go fishing. (as long as she doesn't have to touch the bait or the fish)  :)

and our friends little guy had fun fishing too. :)  (ok, he wasn't really fishing.  One of the other kids abandoned their rod and he was checking it out.  Isn't he cute though?!) :)

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday.  And of course we celebrated that fact the Jesus is risen!  That certainly wasn't forgotten in the business of the day.
