Easter weekend...

We colored eggs here at home on Friday... the girls didn't really get to help this year, but they watched! I let them play with undyed hard boiled eggs for a while until Hannah dropped it enough times on the high chair tray that the shell was cracked and starting to come off. I had to fish a piece of shell out of her mouth!

We spent Easter with James' grandparents. Like Santa on Christmas, we are choosing not to tell our kids the "Easter Bunny" came and brought gifts... but Mommy and Daddy got them Easter baskets. (We don't want our girls to ever question what we tell them is true...) They each got a basket, stuffed bunny, plastic eggs filled with Cheerios, and shared 2 Easter books, and a VeggieTales Easter DVD.

My family on Easter morning. (I was a little reminiscent that day... last Easter I was very pregnant and my Dr. had given me a copy of my records in case I went into labor while we were away, and then the girls were born just 4 days later. {sigh} Now, look at them! (Will have to teach Daddy how to hold a baby in a pretty dress for a picture later... {sigh})

Aunt Barbie giving the girls their first taste of Peeps! They also ate "big people" Easter dinner ...

The family had an egg hunt for the big kids, but my girls thought playing with the eggs was just as fun. They're with their Grandma here.

On Monday, we took our doggie to her new home (another post about that soon) and met my dad, aka Grampy, for lunch. The girls shared a Culvers hamburger and a banana. Mary-pink, Hannah - green)
