| Good Friday |
We celebrated the first day of Spring yesterday with a dumpload of fresh, steaming mulch for our flower beds. Needless to say, I'm a little bit sore on this second day of Spring.
And here it is Good Friday already!
Mark is home today so we started the morning with a little egg dyeing.
I love the concentration here!
Success!
You can just see how exciting Harper found the whole process. I especially like the speck of red dye on her forehead -- the result of "plunking" her eggs into the cups quite forcefully.
The yellow aprons were in a car painting kit from Target - I'm glad I saved them because they were quite useful today!
The finished product. You can't really tell from this photo but we did create a few striped photos following these directions from Real Simple. (We like to keep things simple around here!)
Finally, I'll leave you with a drawing Cole did a few weeks ago. Appropriate subject matter on this Good Friday! The smiling figures are angels in the sky, and the soldiers are all marked with an "S" of course.
Thank goodness He rose again for us!
Happy Easter, everyone! |

Don't you just love a truckload of fresh mulch? That is one of many favorite Spring activities around our house.
Love the photos and amazed at Cole's art talent.

Love those photos!!! Looks like fun. We will be doing that tomorrow. :)

amen! Cole's picture is amazing! Johnny has still not gotten the concept of drawing bodies on people....or arms, for that matter!
I boiled the eggs and we are ready to go later!
Happy Easter Joanna!

What a wonderful, fun day and Cole's drawing brought tears to my eyes. How wonderful that he is learning about Jesus and what He did for us. Thanks for making my Easter!

Happy Easter Weekend to you, my dear!!!
I'm digging the egg pics.

what a great drawing. love that jesus is a different color. i am SO THANKFUL that he died for me and rose again. Happy Easter!
-
Yes, thank goodness He rose indeed!
I hope you enjoyed a wonderful Easter weekend! Great photos of the egg dyeing!

He is risen! He is risen indeed! Love how our 6 and 7 year olds understand Easter, too. Last year, it took quite a lot to convince our then 6-year old son that the sky wasn't going to get all dark and rumble on Good Friday again. That we remember Jesus' death on Easter like we remember His birthday on Christmas--not that it's happening again!

I so love Cole's drawing! Thank you for sharing it. I really needed that in my life today!
