After church we went to my parents house to celebrate Easter.
The girls both wore beautiful smocked dresses. I was quite proud of the fact that the cost of their dresses, combined, was only $5! Katherine's dress was bought from a neighbor at a garage sale and
Caroline's was handed down/borrowed from a friend. What a great deal for 2 beautiful, name brand dresses.
First we opened Easter Baskets. I am not big on candy or junk so I tried to make sure that the gifts in their baskets were useful. I also always want them to receive something spiritual. Katherine received a new Bible. We have loved our "
Big Picture Story Bible" but with reading one story each day for nap and another at bed time, we go through the book twice a month. I got her the "
Jesus Storybook Bible" and so far have really enjoyed it.
Caroline's favorite part of her Easter basket was her Elmo slippers. Katherine received bunny slippers.
My parents have a great yard for an egg hunt. They actually had to hunt for some of the eggs.
Caroline wants to see what Katherine has in her basket.
Checking out the loot.

We went inside where Nana and Pops helped the girls to make bunny biscuits.
Caroline is putting on the raisin eyes.
They were pretty yummy. We finished off the afternoon with lunch followed by naps and rest time. It was a wonderful day celebrating our risen Lord.
