Preparing to celebrate Him

We dyed some eggs today and made a cake to eat tomorrow after dinner. I'm so excited for the girls tomorrow because we're having an egg hunt with our neighbors. We couldn't be more pleased with our street. We have two of the best families we could ask for as neighbors here and that's always been a dream for us: To have a traditional neighborhood with cookouts and street parties and holidays together. We watch each others children and our kids play together. Tomorrow's our first annual easter egg hunt and I'll be sure to post photos.

DYING EGGS

We tried something new this year. We boiled our eggs yesterday and then everyone got to draw secret messages and pictures on them with a white crayon. Then they all went into a bowl and we were all surprised by what "popped" up today when we died them.


In case you're wondering, yes she is indeed usually naked.




I was SO CLOSE! But he's quicker than me.

BAKING OUR CAKE FOR CHRIST


G.G. made the girls these aprons. They love to wear them.



HAPPY EASTER!

    See you Tuesday!
