Happy Easter 2020 - He Is Risen

Easter Peep Stevie

Happy Easter everyone, He Is Risen!  I hope you had a fantastic day with your family and loved ones.  I was a tiny bit sad not to be able to gather in church today but I love that we can live stream our church and I know many others are doing the same during these crazy times.

We were mostly dressed up (I was wearing bunny slippers though).  The kids awoke to an Easter egg hunt down the stairs and all around the living room.  After hunting for eggs, they enjoyed their Easter baskets and treats that were waiting for them on the table.

We made Resurrection Rolls as a family for breakfast - one of my favorite traditions.  It is extremely important to seal the crescent rolls so that the marshmallows don't leak out and one of our batches was not sealed well.  Thankfully, they still taste great.

 This is what happens when the rolls aren't sealed enough...

 When cut into, the roll is empty, just like the tomb.

We then went outside to have our annual raw Easter egg toss competition.  D and I won the 1st round, David and F won the 2nd round, C and F won the 3rd round (E and I almost pulled out the win) and David/D and A/B tied for 1st in the 4th round.

 Yep, these eggs are raw.

This was the first round.

The kids made numerous other egg hunts outside for everyone to participate in throughout the day, they hid empty eggs and we went and found them.  There are lots of good places to hide eggs in our backyard.  And we just enjoyed hanging around the house together - memories!  Hope you had a wonderful Easter as well.
