Easter 2013

Easter was great this year.... as always.  We love this holiday and what it stands for so much.  Our day was pretty relaxed, really.  We went to an awesome church service then came home (or where home is for us for the next 5 more days) and just spent time with family.  It was a good time.....it was nice to not have to go anywhere.

We did all the usual things....Easter eggs dying, Easter egg hunts, church, family, food, and fun...

We dyed Easter eggs on Saturday morning.... we are all still in our PJs..



She is very much in to peace signing...or rabbit ears depending on where those 2 fingers land.


Notice the peace sign







Easter morning
Easter basket(bucket).  Her basket is in storage so I had to buy a bucket to use this year.  She got a weaving loom - totally fun.  We have already done one.  She really likes it.



Easter pics... we got a glimpse of the sun for these shots.


These are our same Easter outfits as last year.  Elaina loved that dress so much and begged to wear it again.  It still fit so SCORE!!  I just didn't get around to shopping for a new one for me so last year's outfit it is.




Her Aunt Melinda was behind the camera showing her how to pose and show "some leg" ....oh brother!!! :)


The best "leg" pose of the day...

Later that morning, we made a layer cake with these festive candy eggs....

And a few cupcakes with leftover batter....

Cousin, Liana, was there and they did stamps

And we dyed a few more eggs... Cassie put cool whip in a bowl and swirled food coloring in it, then you roll the egg in it.  It makes Tye-dye looking eggs... very cool


Easter Egg Hunt... in the rain....couldn't stop us.
 


I think these make cute pictures with the umbrella.  And,no, we did not coordinate it with her dress although it seems that way.  Just a coincidence that my umbrella matches
