Happy Easter!

We all hope you had a wonderful Easter that is full of reflection and gratitude for our dear Savior's ultimate sacrifice and triumph over death!
We got dressed up just for the opportunity to take another family picture.
It's a rare event you know.

You like how our cat Cece dodged the camera by hiding in the blinds?

How about some smiles and a wandering cat?
I think they found all the eggs, so time for a picture!
We wanted an enchanting evening to reflect on. Pick a seat.
Make sure to help yourself at the dessert table.

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!

Getting Ready...

Easter is tomorrow and there are a lot to do for dinner and our own egg hunt, so today, we woke up, ate breakfast, and stopped at Kroger. Why, because it is our ward's Easter Egg Hunt for the Primary children. We had so much fun! Of course we did, considering since the last time we had celebrated Easter (you know with eggs and good dinner) was back in 2006. Why? Because we moved in 2007, so I started packing in early March. Last Easter, I was in school and doing midterms, so the celebration happened quick.
We cleaned our windows, vacuumed and we swept out our front step and changed out our rugs. We said NO to any TV all day tomorrow and have finished out our menu.

At the store, we picked up candies and plastic hinged eggs. We got the kids some new baskets because our Easter stuff from the past years are still buried in the storage! Now the question is, can you guess who owns which basket?



Before you guess, how about some Tea Cakes?

I got the recipe for these fat soft cookies from a fellow blogger,

Shelia of Note Songs
(you should visit her, her blog is so fun)

My kids loved these cookies, so I made enough for tomorrow's dinner, too!

Ok, here are the pictures to see who has which basket.

Are you ready?

Are you sure?

Are you done guessing?


J-Pony has the orange, and I-Dude has the green!

Did you guess right?

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!
