Easter 2013

Wednesday, April 10, 2013



We had a truly enjoyable Easter and took part in all of our fun traditions. First we made treats for our family - carrot cones filled with krispie treats, lime natural simmer pot scents, and a spiritual thought. We dyed eggs of course. This year we tried using Kool-Aide and rubber bands. The Kool-Aide worked fairly well - it smelled good. A funny story - when I told Addie that we were going to "dye" eggs, she got very concerned and asked why we were going to kill the eggs (Hahaha). The girls were excited with their Easter baskets. But Rubie wasn't very excited about getting all dressed up in her cute Easter dress (Sunday mornings are tough). We ended our Easter celebrations by having a mega egg/candy hunt and dinner at the Bassett's. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the egg hunt. Rubie really wasn't too into the eggs or candy - she was just happy to be outside. Addie had a blast! Dinner was beautiful and delicious. The best thing about holidays is the opportunity to make an ordinary day extraordinary. Holidays and traditions bring families together and make magical memories. Christ-centered holidays are that much better as it gives us extra motivation to reflect and improve. Happy Easter!
