Easter 2012

Happy Easter, everyone! This year we had 30 some kids come to our Easter celebration. Wendy shared the Easter story with her drawings, a book, and Resurrection eggs while the dads hit the eggs. I heard the dads had a lot of fun hiding the eggs. After the egg hunt we had lunch potluck style.

After lunch Liz, Katie, and Judy lead some super fun stations. Liz had the kids make butterflies which represented new life. Katie had the kids make stained glass crosses with tissue paper, and Judy made empty tombs with pillsbury dough and marshmallows.

Any guesses as to why the kids are acting like this? I'll give you a hint. It involved Uncle Dennis and my husband and a red jeep!

  4. Wendy, I had A LOT of help! Everyone helped out in some way. I found that Easter is less busy than Thanksgiving and Christmas. So, it's easier to host an Easter get together.
