We enjoyed our Easter and hope you all did too. We got each of the girls a book that talks about Jesus and kind of explains what Easter is about in kid terms. Saralyn still doesn't fully understand, I'm sure. But Alma really seemed to get that it wasn't all about eggs and candy, although she enjoys that part. We were asking her on the way home from church if she learned what Easter was about. She said yes. We said, "Is is just about getting candy?" and she said, "No, it's about Jesus". We asked her, "what did Jesus do on Easter?" and she answered "He came alive again." I was very proud of her for listening to what we, and also her sunday school teacher, were trying to teach her. It's so much fun to see how much they can learn and what they can remember and then the questions they ask about what they learn.
Anyway, here are a few pictures of our Easter.
We had some fun coloring eggs on Saturday...
These are the finished product. Alma did the glitter eggs, and Saralyn put the faces on hers.
Our egg hunt expedition...
Grandma Minnick sent some cute Easter dresses complete with hats for the girls to wear to church. Thanks Grandma! So cute. I love how Saralyn is looking up to her big sister. I took about 3 pictures, trying to get them both looking at me, but every time I snapped the picture, she was looking at Alma. I decided that was pretty cute and shows how much she adores her.
