Decorating Eggs

Tonight we took our kids to the "Reflections of Christ" exhibit over at the Daybreak church house. It was really neat to see the photographs and to watch the video of the process the photographers and models went through to make sure each picture projected the feeling they were trying to capture. They really put a lot of thought into it. I think one of everyone's favorites was the picture of the angels heralding the birth of Christ. I also really liked the picture of John the Baptist and Christ hugging and smiling in the water after Christ was baptized. It was the perfect thing to take the kids to for Easter. It's so hard to find activities that revolve around the true meaning of Easter and not just the Easter bunny. With that said, after the exhibit we all went over to the Lewis' and decorated easter eggs. The kids had a blast together and they were very creative!


We had tie dyed eggs (those didn't work out so well), and glitter eggs (Brit's FAVORITE, she couldn't get over them), and painted eggs and eggs that said "I love Mom" (my favorite), eggs covered in stickers, eggs with General Grievous drawn on them, and a few cracked eggs... whoops.



After everyone was finished coloring their eggs, we made bunny cupcakes. They turned out really cute and not only were they fun to make but they were fun to eat as well!




Now off to bed so the Easter Bunny can come!
