Easter! Well Easter Morning Lucy spit our jelly beans all over her white sweater and dress as I attempted to comb her hair. So this sweater is another one I found and I had to later hand wash her lovely dress. Her and Edyn were matching in yellow and this was the best picture I could come up with. They just weren't very cooperative that morning!

But if I cropped Lucy out on the end, I have this lovely one I love of Edyn and Isak. She definitely looks more like him than Lucy.

Easter morning the kids woke up to some lovely easter baskets and butterfly nets. Isak was much more excited than he looks in the picture. They got books, laser/flash light things, candy and we regifted Isak a DVD I gave him for his birthday last year and he hasn't seen in a while. He totally thought it was a new present. And Lucy got an angry bird shirt which she would all day and night if I didn't hide it from her. She LOVED it.

Easter weekend was a tad crazy at our house. We also celebrated my birthday in there and I picked up an extra shift at work so we were very busy. Saturday morning we had a giant easter egg hunt out at Kevin's parent's house. I thought it would be such a great place to hid eggs and its a huge lawn so we had everyone bring eggs and I hid them all. The kids loved it of course and had so much fun finding them all. I didn't find an leftover so they all did a great job of picking them all up! All together we had over 20 kids there so it was a great success!

We dyed eggs earlier in the week with Kevin's cousin and their kids. This was the first time we have dyed eggs and Isak and Lucy really enjoyed it and figured it out right away. They were sad when we ran out of eggs to do and started stealing their cousins'.

Isak and I also conducted a PEEP experiment that I stole from someone's blog and we dissolved PEEPS in different liquids and observed what happened. We did orange juice, pop, water, vinegar and soap. We let them sit for a week and Isak liked looking at the changes every morning. They were pretty gross by the end!

We also exploded PEEPS with vinegar, baking soda, and food coloring. It was a lot of fun. We had a wonderful Easter! It was great to go to church and remember the true meaning of why we celebrate the holiday. We talked about it in home evening that week and I was suprised how much Isak seemed to understand. I just hope next year maybe the weekend will not be so crazy!
