I am a little late with this post. The last week or so has flown by. Easter was fantastic, and I have a few photos to share.

On Easter eve, we dyed Easter eggs with the kids.

 

The kiddos love dyeing eggs. It is fun, messy, and everyone gets involved.

We dyed three dozen eggs this year. That way each kiddo had at least a dozen to find in the morning.

The big kids were anxious to get to bed, but Agnes wasn’t. She was ready for Easter to begin.

The kids woke up bright and very very early. They tore through the house gathering eggs, and eating way too much chocolate for breakfast.

They got lots of fun items, and I think they found all of the eggs that were hidden. We cleaned up a bit, and I started to work on the Easter desserts. We were having all of the family up in the afternoon to celebrate Dylan’s birthday, and Easter too.

Uncle Rob arrived first, and the kids were so excited. They miss him a lot. Aunt Jill and both of the grandmas arrived shortly after Rob. Then the party could begin. We had cake and ice cream, and spent the afternoon outdoors. The weather was amazing that day. There were bubbles, frisbee in the yard, and sidewalk chalk to decorate the sidewalk too. The kids had so much fun.

I snuck back indoors, and finished up cooking. It has become our family tradition to have Fried Chicken with all of the fix-ins for Easter dinner. There is always enough, and we all love fried chicken. I also made a few pies, and homemade vanilla ice cream too.

Easter was so awesome! The peach pie was crazy good too.
