Easter Weekend

Every year growing up, my family would color eggs for Easter. My siblings have all continued to do so with their families and although we don't have any of our own little ones yet, I was determined to continue the tradition with just Jace and I. I bought the dye and the eggs and brought my enthusiasm to the table on Saturday afternoon!! Jace's family has never been much into coloring eggs for Easter-what a deprived child :) You can imagine his response to my asking him to join me. After a little coaxing and whining, a guilt trip here and there ;) He gave in and dropped some eggs into the mugs of dye :) It wasn't much, but it was something! In the end, we did have a good time together!!

He's just thrilled!!



Easter Sunday, we got together with my family for some good eats and delicious treats! The kids had their annual Easter egg hunt on the hills of mom and dad's house and we all enjoyed the beautiful weather!!

After all the dyed eggs are eaten and all the mounds of Easter candy consumed, let us remember what it's really about...

Jace was deprived! How could you not just LOVE coloring eggs? In fact, we're going to do it again this weekend, so we can take some eggs to the sand dunes!

as random as it is, i love your stove!!! i think it's gorgeous.

egg dying looks like it was fun ... i completely forgot about it this year, but then again i wasn't about to eat 12 eggs by myself since my family was out of town.

At least he didn't pull over the cups of dye. That was fun to try and clean up!
