Easter with the Phillips' (part 1)

Our Saturday was jam packed with Easter traditions. First we made our sugar cookies.... still quite the experience with three little helpers. Kent suggested we not do this again until they are older. :) Through the whole process at least one child was on top of the counter "helping."

Notice the flour EVERYWHERE! It just got worse from here.

Time to frost, onto outfits number two.

YAY for frosting!

Everyone took a sample taste at one point.

I got smart and decided to dye eggs while the girls were napping. We didn't have enough hands to cover all the dye cups, eggs and spoons! Plus, B got some fun time with just us!

Dad and Brayden having so much fun! Kent was thrilled because we got TWO different blue colored dyes, but no purple. We had lots of blue eggs to choose from!

Before bed Brayden asked if we could leave a carrot for the Easter bunny. I said, "Sure, check the fridge." Luckily there was a nasty old carrot and a limp stalk of celery. The kids were THRILLED, it was the funniest thing ever. They waved their nasty veggies around forever before putting them in their buckets for the Easter bunny.

YAY for nasty vegetables!

Easter morning! Checking out the buckets, making sure she didn't get something better!

YAY for egg hunts and the Easter Bunny!
