Here is a Re-Cap of our Easter weekend.
In true Larson fashion, we had several Easter celebrations/activities to attend!
To kick off the Easter Weekend, we dyed Easter Eggs at Kevin's parents house.
Claire loved it, although she was into everything, so we had to regulate her egg dyeing.

Then, on Saturday morning, we had our neighborhood Egg Hunt.
As soon as we walked up, all our neighbors chastised us & gave us a hard time for moving.
We will truly miss this community.

Every year, at the neighborhood Egg Hunt, the Easter Bunny arrives to kick off the Egg Hunt.
Kate was actually estactic & excited to see the Easter Bunny.

After the neighborhood Egg Hunt, we headed to Kevin's parents for another Egg Hunt.
We need to give our girls lessons in Egg hunting. They would find an egg, sit down, open it to see what was inside & then eat the candy. They just weren't interested in collecting a lot of eggs.

Then on Easter Sunday, we headed to church.
I helped in Kate's classroom so I missed the service, but Kevin said it was great.

The girls get the same thing every year in their Easter baskets (swim suit, swim suit cover up, a pair of pajama's & a new sun dress and of course Reeces's eggs. Best.Easter.Candy.Ever!)
This year they also got some new headbands, a coloring book and these personalized dolls with their names on them & a bible verse
( I chose the Bible verse that we read at each of their dedications)

The girls were so excited to see that the Easter Bunny came while we were at church
***I had their Easter Baskets assembled the night before, but when we get home from church, I run inside put the baskets out while Kevin is unloading the girls from the car when we get home from church. We can get away with this...for now!)

Kate digging into her loot (love the dress she is holding up..it is from Target's Libery of London line. LOVE it all!!)
Kevin finally made them smile, but my camera was on the wrong setting, so Kate is out of focus & Claire's feet are blurry. Oh well, this was the best one. *sigh*
These were not originally their Easter outfits.
A few months ago, I got them some really cute sundresses & sandals.
But, since we got a cold front & it was 50 degrees & raining, we went with different outfits.
I guess I will save their actual Easter dresses for Mother's Day.
The rest of our Easter was spent with my family & our family friends at our Easter: Resurrected Party .
And, can you believe it....I didn't take ANY pictures while we were there!!
I was having too much fun hanging out, eating & socializing that I didn't even take my camera out of the bag!!!
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter celebrating that "He is Risen!"
I am on Spring Break recovering from a busy holiday weekend & gearing up to move this weekend!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe how big Claire is, she looks so much like a "little girl" now instead of a baby. And those outfits they wore were adorable! How awesome that your families are Christians as well and you guys had an Easter: Resurrected party. :) Great idea for the stuff in the Easter baskets too!

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post, so many things to comment upon! I love the bunny shirts they wore for the Easter egg hunt, so cute! Isn't the Liberty line adorable?! I bought a couple of pieces myself for my little girl and am kicking myself for not getting a few other pieces. I love the babydolls and have bookmarked the site as I want to get one of those for my little girl's birthday next month - thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I hope the house hunting is going well!
I love the Easter baskets...and what great ideas that you put in there...need to remember those for next year. My girls got little dolls too...and Kaylin LOVES her so much...sleeps with it every night.
ReplyDeleteAnd love the bunny shirts!
And I was just happy to actually have Easter Baskets for my kids this year, geez! :) Love that you know that Target clothing line. I go about as far as Circo. Haven't been lately, but with Spring and all the cute clothes, could be dangerous! Hope you are doing okay with the packing-thinking of you guys!
ReplyDeleteMel, You gotta come virtual blog party with me. You bring the dessert for sure.

wow, adorable girls and such a great post! reeses eggs are the BEST candy ever!
ReplyDeleteMy girls had to wear back up dresses too! Stupid weather, but the Mother's day idea is brilliant. I got them all three different, but coordinating Liberty of London sundresses. The cuteness. Can't handle the cuteness. I ADORE the dolls. I need to get them for my girlies. So special. LOVE!!!
