Happy Easter!

 Our buddy, Alex, (and his Mama) invited us to the Easter Egg Hunt at their church this weekend.  What fun we had!  There were some Easter related activities, and then an egg hunt!
(Thank you, KK for the bunny ears!)


 We made "Empty Tomb rolls for breakfast on Saturday (roll cinnamon and sugar on a marshmallow and wrap it in a crescent roll, after baking it is "empty").  They were delicious and easy!  So fun to have all of these ways to reinforce the Easter story.  (Thank you Pinterest!)


Egg decorating.  
H said "These eggs are from the Easter Patch.  Say your Hosannas, boys!"
There were a couple of cracked/smooshed eggs, but we did end up with some cute monsters. 
(I tried the muffin tin baking method that I saw on Pinterest and it worked great!  325* for 25 minutes).


 Hello!


 C was a little slow in collecting eggs, because he had to stop after each egg and check out what was in it, and then reassemble it before moving on to the next.


 H and Alex.  These boys together can be busy and fun, but they do have a good time.


 Egg hunt in and out of our house on Easter morning. The boys got bubbles, little Easter animals, and some other this and that from the Easter Bunny.  Tatum was excited about finding eggs too!  And Horton thought the eggs were excellent toys to scoot around the house.


 "Sealing the tomb"  We made Resurrection Cookies the night before Easter, where each ingredient/step of the recipe is a symbol of something that happened in the Easter story.  It was a great activity for them.  They seemed to "get it." And enjoy them! We shared the cookies with our neighbors.


 Another egg hunt with Mary Ann after lunch at Nanny's.  
(We have soooo many eggs at our house now!)


 Loving on Nanny.


We stopped by to visit with PawPaw and Missy on Easter afternoon.  The boys had a great time at church, Nanny's, and PawPaw and Missy's, but after, C said "I'm tired.  I want to go home."  

Easter was great from start to finish, and what a nice time to spend with family and friends.
