More Easter Fun

On Good Friday we dyed Easter Eggs. Elyse had a fun time stirring the eggs in the different dyes. By the end she was putting the eggs in and taking them out all on her own.

She was pretty proud of how they turned out.

As you saw in an earlier post Anastasia got her hair done while we were dying eggs. This is the pig tail look. She wasn't so excited about it.

On Easter Day Elyse woke up to a filled basket and eggs hidden around. We forgot to tell her about waiting to open her basket and finding eggs until we were all up, so by the time she came to wake us up, her basket (and Anastasia's) was looked through and a lot of the eggs were found. I think the only reason she came to get us was that she couldn't get an egg open.

Anyway, we did get up in time to see her find most of the eggs. Some were easy to spot...

And others were harder...

but in the end she found them all. We unfortunately couldn't go to church since 3/4 of the family was sick, but we did have a great time celebrating Jesus' Resurrection with a retelling of his story admits the eggs and candy. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter.
