Evelyn has really enjoyed Easter this year! Of course, it really helps that it did not snow like last year. To kick off the holiday, we colored eggs on Friday night. Not just any old eggs, but glittery eggs! Evelyn had fun putting the dye tabs into the water and watching the eggs change color. Most of all, she loved shaking the glitter onto the eggs. Yes, three cracked along the way, but all went well for the most part! On Saturday, Rob's parents drove up for a visit and brought along one of 4 Easter baskets that she received this year (she isn't spoiled at all is she?!). Later in the evening, we all headed over to Mason's house for an egg hunt. Our good friends all gathered and the dads got to scatter the eggs on the front lawn. Once outside, it was comical! Evelyn ran around collecting as many eggs as possible while Mason and Jacob would pick one up and open to see what was inside. In the end, Evelyn had 23 eggs! Who would have guessed our little one would be such a good collector? Then, on Sunday morning, Evelyn awoke to find the Easter Bunny had left another basket of goodies for her on her little table. She was excited to sift through the items and show them to Pop and Grandma. On a day that we celebrate Christ rising from the dead to fulfill His promise, we also realize the many blessings He has given to us--especially our family. Happy Easter everyone!
