Easter Sunday 2008.....

Here are some pictures of our Easter Sunday before meeting up with the rest of the family. We hid eggs in our backyard for the boys and they loved it.

They loved it so much that whenever Grandma comes over to watch them, the boys make her hide eggs in the backyard. (we kept a box of the plastic eggs because we felt bad just throwing them away...we're being green!)

We store the box way up high in Garrett's closet thinking they'll forget about it. But, nope, they ALWAYS make Grandma get the step stool and take the box down to hide the eggs. It drives me a little crazy but it makes them happy.

And yes, I know my boys are NOT twins. I'm continuously reminded by my sister that they're not twins, so why do I dress them as twins? Because I can and I like too :) I don't have any girls to dress so I have to dress my boys. I know that someday they won't let me dress them at all. I've got to do it while I can.

Easter Dessert 2008.....

We had our Easter celebration at Frankie & Kathy's house last year. I was in charge of bringing dessert. Actually, I was supposed to bring jello. I didn't want to bring boring old jello so I searched for something unique and tasty made from jello.

I found this beautiful rainbow jello creation online and decided I needed to make it. I don't think I'll ever make it again. It took ALL day long (I made it the Saturday before), and you've gotta have a lot of patience to wait for it to set properly. It really was beautiful but it was also a pain in the ass. I remember taking these pictures and telling myself, "you've gotta blog about this because it will never happen again". I also found a key lime cheesecake at costco that I thought was really pretty. It turned out to be pretty tasty as well.

Coloring Eggs 2008.....

We went to Lita & Lito's the Saturday before Easter to color Easter eggs. The boys were a little more into it this year. Jake was 2 and Garrett was 5. It was a little messier than we would have liked but they had a great time. Their hands were dyed blue for a couple of days and Jake got dye all over his shirt. We're looking forward to this tradition in 2009.

Easter Bunny 2008....



These pictures were taken on March 15th, 2008. We took the kids to the annual PG&E family Easter egg hunt. They all had a great time hunting for eggs, playing games, and eating Easter Candy. We can't wait to do it again in 2009.
