Easter's fast approaching

Here we are at another holiday. They seem to come, and go, so quickly. We have to go driving all around with the kids so that we can see both families. It is very exhausting, but well worth it in the end. This year shouldn't be so bad because we now live closer to both families. The kids are all excited about Easter, especially Dylan. He loves the candy.

We will have an Easter Egg hunt at the house this year, our 1st year in the new house, before we set out for a day of fun with our families. I purchased all sorts of candy for the kids that we will put in about 20-30 eggs and hide all over the yard. It should be a really fun time!!!

I also want to do a fun egg decorating project with the kids. I saw a great project today on The Martha Stewart Show. http://www.marthastewart.com/article/silk-dyed-easter-eggs?lnc=38f9cf380e1dd010VgnVCM1000005b09a00aRCRD&rsc=showmain_tv_the-martha-stewart-show It looked fairly easy for a 5-year-old to help with and the eggs are so beautiful! I think we will try this on Saturday. Tristan will be more interested in eating the eggs than decorating them.

I am also trying my hand at some gluten-free/vegan sugar cookies that we can cut out into Easter/Spring shapes and bring with us to grandma and grandpa tick-tock's house.
