Cousins, eggs, and the Resurrection

Scarlett came over and we had a great afternoon celebrating Easter cousin-style. It was packed with eggs, coloring, hiding, cookies, and lots of playing!
We started off with a snack---cookies! We had bunny, butterfly, and flower cookies! Oh yeah, and strawberry icing!
 See my beautiful roses right from my front yard??
After the cookies, we did a little activity to help remind the girls what Easter is all about. They colored pictures and glued them to two paper plates. The plates then turn into an empty tomb. Jesus is alive!
 Love her retelling this amazing miracle!
Next we colored our eggs.
Then out to the backyard for an egg hunt!
Lily and Scarlett didn't last too long...
But London was unstoppable!
Lily taking a little break. This is what she does when I tell her to smile.
We headed inside to decorate our pretty eggs.
That ended our Easter festivities. We have a super busy weekend ahead of us, but I am happy that the girls got to celebrate together.
Happy Easter!
