Easter weekend was very busy for our family. On Saturday morning, we got up and made our Resurrection Rolls!
Madeline amazed me at how well she was able to relate the story of Jesus' Resurrection. This was the first time we made these and she had a lot of fun putting them together.
Will did well remembering the story as well but didn't really like the feel of the melted butter and sugar on his fingers, so he mostly observed:)
Here is the finished product! They were very tasty and made a fun breakfast treat:)
Then, we had an Easter Egg Hunt to attend! Our friends get together and throw a huge Easter Egg hunt for all of our kids every year. Madeline and Will look forward to it.
I couldn't believe Will was willing to pose with the Easter Bunny this year. That morning, he insisted on wearing his sunglasses, which cracks me up:) He never wants to wear them. He kept calling them his safety glasses.
There were horses right next to the property where we were hunting. Will wasn't that in to seeing them, but Madeline loved it! Here she is trying to feed the horse some grass.
The horse was so sweet and friendly and didn't mind her petting him at all. Madeline is such an animal lover that it was great for her!
After dinner that evening, we got down to business dying some eggs! Madeline was excited to use the customary white crayon. Later, we realized we must have gotten a dud because, no matter how hard we pressed down with it, the lines hardly showed up once they were dyed:(
Will's fine motor skills sure have improved a lot in the last year. He was able to handle his eggs with very little help:)
Madeline even got creative and made a few that had more than one color!
Here are the finished eggs. I splurged this year and got the kit that come with stickers:)
After the kids went to bed, I got their basket gifts ready.
Finally, I finished decorating our Easter Bunny cookies to take with us to see family on Easter!
