Easter 2011

 The kid's Easter started on Thursday. They had Easter parties and egg hunts at their school.
 Friday their grandparents surprised the boys with a overnight trip to the beach!

 It was cloudy Saturday morning so they got to go to the aquarium.

 
 

 
 Later that day it warmed up so they got to go walk in the ocean
 
When the boys got home Saturday night we made Resurrection cookies.
This recipe is a great way to teach kids about the story of Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection
The true story of Easter
 


 

The cookies didn't turn out (see below) what they are supposed to look like but the lesson was great! 
Sorry, kids your mom is a horrible cook!
 The next morning was EASTER SUNDAY! 
The kids woke up to their surprises on the table, 
we got dressed up and went to church







After church we headed to Joey's parents for dinner and an Easter egg hunt










Next it was to my mom and dad's house for more dinner and egg hunts!



My grandma had special baskets for each great grand baby, they were so cute all huddled up at the car waiting to see what they got.
 
 
At the end of the weekend we had over a dozen chocolate bunnies and tons of candy; we were stuffed but most of all our kids learned about a loving God who sent his Son to die for us and no amount of chocolate could be better than that! :)
