Easter

Yesterday we started out coloring eggs at Trudy's.  She always buys 1 dozen eggs for each of them and then buys extra for Grandpa and me, at least this year.  I think I bought and boiled our eggs last year even though we take them to her house every year to color.
Every year we try something different, this year it was this spinner.  It made cool looking eggs.


Ceci still used the wax crayon before coloring some of her eggs.


Zane still used his fingers instead of spoons.  You can tell from Trudy's hands she has been helping.

Grandpa can't figure out if he likes this color.  He finally wiped it off and colored the egg a different color.  You can tell he has been eating hard boiled eggs with katsup as he goes.

Egg in the yellow color and one in the spinner.

For someone who didn't want to color eggs he is doing alright.



Everyone was having fun and enjoying being together.



Great looking eggs.

You can tell all the kids loved coloring whether on the eggs or on the face.



Poor Bubbles, Baxter took a picture of her through the kitchen window but she kept looking through the window at us thinking she was missing out on something.

This Easter morning Grandpa got up and made his baking powder biscuits.

Then I made golden rod eggs.  You know hard boiled eggs, white sauce which you put in the eggs whites, sprinkle the yolks on top with smoked flavor papika, serve over biscuits. Yummy.

 Then as usual the Easter Bunny left our bucket over at the Bainters and the kids and Trudy brought it over to us this morning.  That Easter Bunny doesn't seem to know where we live.

Then to top it off we have been watching a wonderful general conference reminding me what is really important, our Savior's resurrection.  The messages have been beautiful.

I made what we call egg gravy--golden rod eggs the easy way. Kids scraped up every last drop.
