Hopping Down the Bunny Trail…..

Where did last week go?  I did not get the photos downloaded from Easter until just now.  We were invited to my son’s house for an after Church Easter lunch.  My daughter-in-law made tacos and all the fixings including guacamole which was super yummy!  After lunch the kiddos had their Easter egg hunt.  It was such a beautiful day!  After hunting eggs we played some soccer, some dodge ball, trampoline and just all around goofing around.  Here are just a few photos of our day, between my daughter-in-law and I we took 161 photos – I will only subject to 20 of them!

These first few photos were taken by me…..

Something the Lord has Made

What a beautiful weekend to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.  We seem to have some odd ways to honor this holiday – coloring of eggs and baskets of goodies?  This weekend was busy – we had one of the kiddos Friday night and on Saturday the rest of the family joined us for some spring celebration. 

Friday night we colored Easter eggs using shaving cream and food coloring – this proved to be a very fun activity.  I hope you will consider trying this activity with your little ones – I would recommend gloves though as the food coloring does not just wash away!

On Saturday Little Toot wanted a rose, so we headed out to the Maas Nursery to pick up some plants, including her rose.

She also wanted to plant some seeds, her choice was burgundy okra.  As we are not true southerners my husband and I have not yet bonded with this little veggie, but the plants are very pretty and so we will hope for a successful planting.  Once her planting was done she played and played in the mud.

Part of their Easter surprise were kites, no wind yesterday so they created their own, and of course as brother was running down the street the phrase “Run Forest Run” was going through my mind.

I hope your weekend was long and spent with family creating memories.
