Celebrating Our Savior's Resurrection


We had such a wonderful Easter season! The holidays are getting so fun since all three boys are old enough to understand and appreciate the season. We did egg hunts (inside and out), crafts, resurrection rolls and eggs, dyed eggs and started a new yummy tradition...

The first egg hunt was on a Sunday afternoon at Jack and Luke's preschool.  They were hesitant at first, but after a few seconds of watching Abram have so much fun, they jumped right in!! They loved going through their eggs when we got home.

Their Loot!



Our favorite activity by far this year was a glow in the dark egg hunt. It was at a local church and inside their auditorium. It was amazing to see and so well organized, we can't wait to go back next year!

This year all three boys were off for Good Friday and it was storming outside, so we spent the day decorating eggs. We used chalk, balloons, and corks.  I think they turned out great and the boys had a fun time!

Of course, our favorite activity of the season is dying eggs.  We did the traditional die, new color snaps and we also used shaving cream mixed with food dye. So fun and so extremely messy!

So beautiful and creative!

Here's my favorite pictures of the boys from Easter morning at our church. I can't believe how grown up they look and so handsome in their button down shirts!


My sweet boys!

Our new tradition that we tried this year was making and eating smores peeps! We put a layer of chocolate chips down, put peeps on top and baked for a few minutes. After they cooled off, we devoured them with graham crackers. So yummy!

So good!!

It was such a wonderful season celebrating our Savior and His immense love for us. Now we are looking forward to the twins' birthday party, our first lemonade stand and of course... summer!!
