Easter Egg Hunt
We had a nice, though cold, morning, but then it started raining and SNOWING! Finally, around 6pm, it had cleared up enough for an outdoor Easter Egg Hunt!
I also used the wonderful Easter Candle printable after trying to find an "easy" Easter Candle idea. What could be easier than this!!! It is much more beautiful than I could have ever tried to make!
Hi! Where did you find the Resurrection set?
Thanks!
I purchased the Resurrection Set last year from Oriental Trading. You can find the link in this post.
The children look so precious in their Easter outfits!
And your Lamb mold cake turned out beautifully. I would like to buy one for next year. My amazon wish list keeps growing, lol!
I'm honored that you would include my gift in Rose's Easter basket. She's such a darling!
God bless and Happy Easter! 🙂
I love that your Chiquita has the same beautiful smile in every picture!
Such happy kids!!
So wonderful! Everyone looked so lovely!!
Thank you for sharing about "The Reluctant Saint." We just borrowed "The Little Friar Who Flew" by Tomie de Paola from the library and my children loved the story of Joseph. I checked and it is available on Netflix so I added it to our queue. We have gotten to see the best saint movies by way of our Netflix subscription. Thank you so much for mentioning it. 🙂
Hi Jessica
Gorgeous flowers and gorgeous family. God bless
