Easter eggstravaganza

We had a great Easter weekend. Hope everyone else did, too! Both girls enjoyed some Easter egg hunting, although Katie was mostly used as the basket :)

On Saturday we took Ellie to an Easter event at the local YMCA. She got her face painted like a bunny, got to hunt for candy-filled eggs, and she blew off some energy in a bounce house.

Oh, and she stalked the Easter bunny all around the Y. She brought this pig craft that we made at the library a day earlier just to show the bunny. Too cute.

And here she is about to dive into eating Jello eggs she and I made on Friday. I even let Ellie stir the Jello up (in a very deep bowl to try to contain all the red!) The eggs were a real treat! (Thanks to grandma for sending us the Jello mold!)

Here's a couple videos showing the egg enjoyment and the sugary-frenzy the dessert brought on!





I failed to get any pictures of the girls in their beautiful dresses for church on Sunday morning. And I didn't get pictures of our Easter eve dinner up at Maggie and Chris' house, but we all had a great time. (And Katie did amazingly well on her first road trip.) Thanks again for the lamb feast!
