Then, on Saturday the boys and I worked on some more Easter goodies. First we made some Easter cupcakes.
Gavin was literally drooking over all the candy. Nice.

With just a little bit of food coloring and the right toppings we created....
These cute little easter basket cakes
Later on that day we made resurrection rolls. The boys had some much fun dipping "Jesus" in the butter and covering the "tomb." They turned out great (thanks Mikele!) I may have had more than one....but I was really just making sure that he was gone from every tomb!
On to Easter morning!

The boys were nice a cozy with Grandpa in the back while we caravaned over
Us girls before church. ( I don't know if you can tell by the picture but Zoey's skirt matches my dress. I got this material at GoOdwill for $1 and spent most of Saturday making this dress and a matching skirt for Zoey. Not bad...Easter attire for $1)
Our family....it was beautiful outside and quite bright out too!
With Grandma and Grandpa
Grandma bought these sweet plaid outfits for the boys for Easter. The looked so handsome!
After a wonderful church service, we came back to our house. My sisters family joined us, as well as Joel's family. We started off with an Easter egg hunt. We Hid almost 100 eggs and then let the kids loose!

I'm loving the cakes with the peeps! And you did a great job on yours and Zoe's dresses!
Thanks Jen! My goodwill has a section by the curtains and tablecloths that is just remnants of fabric that people donated. Most of them were pretty ugly but I totally lucked out with this and was really fortunate it was just enough fabric to fit around me! I cut some off the bottom to make Zoey's skirt!
Love the cakes! We looked for you at church, but it was quite the madhouse.
Love it all...easter egg dying with christmas paper cups, the yummy looking treats, your matching dresses, your sweet tired out family at the end of the day. Happy Easter to you guys! :)
The eggs looks great ... and the dress/skirt are fabulous! Did you smock (is that the right word?) the top part? SUPER impressive!
Thanks Carrie....but no, the material already came gathered at the top so it was really super easy, just had to hemm it and then make the straps for the haltar. You can buy really cute material like that at Jo-ann's that is already gathered/smocked.
I LOVE GOODWILL! And also, your cutie pies! :)
