Today was the long awaited Spring Celebration 2009. We ate yellow cinnamon roll bunnies this morning (pink was the color last year, so we decided on yellow this time), accompanied by flower-shaped cheese, and of course, the oh-so-sought-after "peeps" or "cheeps" or "Repicheeps," as Thomas kept calling them.
After dyeing our eggs, we got to work on school while they were drying. But after lunch, we added the finishing touches to the eggs.
This evening was the best part. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal together on our special tablecloth - Anna set the whole table and it looked great!
We had a flower pot dessert...
...and then the kids were chompin' at the bit to get outside to hunt eggs!
So Kris hid all 76 of them while we waited, and then we released the kids for their greatly anticipated hunt.
The older kids left the easy ones for Daniel to find.
Even Genny tried to get some eggs!
I intended to incorporate a few more intentionally God-centered elements in our day, like a craft. Maybe next year. Thank you, Father, for the beautiful ways You show Your glory in spring!
soooo cute. By the way, you keep secrets really well, I had no idea you had restarted a blog! Keep it coming!
