Easter Egg Fun! & Preparing for Easter!

The day before Easter the kids dyed Easter eggs in the backyard. This was my best idea yet as Gianna thought it was time to splash in the colored water. There was laughing and yelling and in the end they took a nap right after lol. Here are the pictures of Gianna's 1st Egg dying and Jordan did so well trying to teach her all about it.

At the Same time My Mom and I were really bussy getting things ready for easter Sunday , we baked alot of goodies I made Blueberry Muffins and Homemade bread for French toast and I dipped strawberries in white choc. , My Mom made a homemade Angel food cake with choc and choped everything up for her egg dish .

Jordans Easter Party at school

Jordan's school does not take spring breakt untill the week after Easter so this past Thursday he had an Easter lunchen at school , I totaly forgot my memory card at home in the computer and was totaly bummed out about it! But each Mom gets told what to bring for the day by the teacher and this time I got bite sized piece of water mellon and I looked high and low for some way to make this easter like and I found it a little bunny shaped cookie cutter and it was little lol

Here are my bite sized bunny watermellons

Although this is a heathly food only kind of class I always find a fun treat to make for the kids and make it about the holiday the party is for I ussally bag the cookies and tie a penciel that goes with the holiday to the bag and then the kids get to take these home for later. Jordan goes to a very wonderful christian school so I always get to add relgion about the holiday in to witch is so wonderful!
