Easter 2011


Ready to dye eggs
Ella was a big helper this year. She had at least 6 eggs soaking at a time. It was fun to have her at the table with Adia and John this year.

Adia likes to be artistic with her eggs. She takes her time half dipping the eggs, and likes using the wax crayon to write names and designs.

John likes putting monster face stickers on his eggs.

After much begging, the kids persuaded me to buy an egg spinner this year. Wasn't all it "cracked" up to be. (Get it?) lol

Finished eggs

We put the baskets out with carrots and water for the Easter Bunny


After pawing through their baskets, it was time to find the hidden eggs downstairs!





Ready for Church


After Church we hosted Easter at our house this year, since Pat bought a Big Green Egg Grill.
It was beautiful weather, so Pat's Mom organized an egg/candy hunt for the grandkids.
Gramma went a little crazy on the treats. The kids had to use grocery store bags to hold all their loot!
Pat's Aunt Martha made these cake chicks on sticks!

Egg & Candy Hunt


Baylee found some of her things on the playset roof

Grandpa Gaddy helped Adia and Ella sort their goodies

Easter was also John and Mary Jane's 46th Wedding Anniversary!
