Easter Saturday

We have decided (at least for now) that we are going to do all the Easter candy/egg stuff on Saturday morning.  We did it last year out of necessity and LOVED it - so we did it again this year and loved it as well.

 

So on Friday we dyed Easter eggs.  We dyed them the traditional way with everyone - I never took pictures - but then we put Mads to bed and let the others paint eggs with water color.  They loved it and was way more fun than just putting them in colored water - I thought that is what we would do every year.  But as it turns out - the paints does dry, but when you put it in the fridge and then take them out the paint gets wet and drippy again.  Who knew?

 

Anyways they were really into their egg painting.

Our Easter Bunny left us some new and much needed sand toys...

 

And some candy eggs and baskets hidden around the house.

Madison never put a single candy in her cup - all went straight into her mouth.

Megan methodically tried to only go for the pink eggs, which was weird because she has never really cared about the pink thing before.

And Noah and Brock spent more time helping their sisters than finding their own.  We have good boys.

Then we went to my mom's for an Easter egg hunt with all the cousins.

We had a wonderful Easter Saturday.
