Easters

This year I was determined to have a great Easter. Last year was lame. We moved the day before Easter. We were exhausted. We didn't have a working stove and couldn't find the dishes. We didn't dye eggs. We had Easter Dinner at Olive Garden. And there was an earthquake. (Which was kind of cool). So this year had to be goooood.

So to make up for the eggs last year, (I still had the dye) we colored 4 dozen eggs. Good times.

The girls got some new summer outfits and beach toys for our upcoming trip.
And we had an Easter egg hunt. Megan needed to find blue and green eggs and Sami needed to find pink and purple. Someone hid one in a cactus. Silly mom. They managed to get it out.

We had a lovely time at church, then it was time for Easter dinner. We had a ham and my favorite thing with ham is funeral potatoes. I rushed home from church and whipped them up and got them in the oven. They smelled soooo good. When it was time to eat I got them out of the oven and DROPPED them. They landed on the oven rack, danced to the back of the oven and flipped upside down and landed on the bottom of the oven. GRRRRR!

Nate scooped them out of the oven for me and took a picture. He thought one day I might laugh about it. And since I had been looking forward to them, I made another batch, so dinner was an hour later than we had planned on, but it was yummy! All in all, we had a lovely day.
