Our day

We had a busy day today. We started with an Easter egg hunt at our church. The kids had fun finding eggs and making Easter crafts, but I unfortunately forgot my camera so no pictures of that one. We then hit the mall to go see the Easter bunny. No one cried this year which was an unexpected thing. Elise even gave the Easter bunny a hug good-bye. (Last year she cried until I joined her in the picture. The year before that, Emilie got hysterical and had to go wait with my mom while we got a picture with Claire, baby Elise, and the "evil" bunny.)

Next we dyed Easter eggs at home. We made tie-dye eggs and polka-dot eggs. The girls are always up for anything having to do with arts and crafts so this was a big hit.

We then rounded out the day with a visit from Maw-Maw Becky and Paw-Paw Wayne (Eric's parents) which ended up with a bit of silliness involving the entire contents of the girls' dress-up trunk and Eric's newest hobby: banjo music (but that's a whole new post...)

Is that a skunk hat?

Yes it is. We went to Silver Dollar City in '06, and Claire an Emilie each had to get one. So as we walked around the rest of the day we heard, "oh, look at your little stinkers!"
