{Easter Activities and Easter Day}

2.5 months later I figure it's a good idea to blog about Easter, no?

We had a couple different Easter Festivities this year which was a lot of fun. Our cute neighbor, Miss Jackie, and her aid, Theresa, set up an Easter egg hunt and party for the girls. It was so great! The girls were thrilled.

They made each girl their own little Easter basket and had a great little snack spread for them as well. Matching Easter cups and plates and every kid's favorite foods. It was so thoughtful of them to organize that for us. We are grateful for good neighbors!

And of course we dyed some of our own Easter eggs! I look forward to this every year! It's smelly and messy and slightly stressful, but oh so satisfying!!

We also had a little Easter egg hunt with some of our church buddies at a neighborhood park. 

The girls had a blast and collected WAY too much candy :)

On Easter Sunday we waited to look for the Easter basket until after naps after church.
Evette was so excited!

Miriam was still a little dazed from her nap. 

The Easter bunny brought a little bit of candy and this big map book. 

It's our new favorite thing. It has tons of countries with pictures about their food, culture, wildlife, famous people, etc. It's such a great learning tool! That Easter Bunny is a smart guy.
