Easter


























Dyeing Easter eggs.  So easy and stress free now that my girls are almost 7 and 9.  Although I messed up and didn't so much hard boil my eggs as poach them.  @#easterfail  That didn't ruin the dyeing, just the breakfast the next morning.
























We celebrated Easter at our house with our good friends from church this year. Look how cute these kids are.
























The girls set the table pretty:
























And we made this cross cake.  This actually took me longer than the whole rest of the meal put together. My sister's mother in law makes this with red velvet cake but i just made mine white.  The blood red just seems a little too "Eucharist" to me.
























The food.  I just learned how to roast carrots and now I make them a lot.  I don't even usually like cooked carrots.























Pretty girls in last year's dresses.
























Getting ready for the egg hunt:

























My friend and her little one:













And even though we had to miss the family festivities this year, Gram and Cousin Karen both got the girls an Easter basket.  Thank You!
