Easter 2012

We had a nice Easter this year and it was fun to watch the girls interact together since Molly is more mobile now.  Last Thursday and Friday, we spent time with my parents and the girls had a hunt and lots of Easter goodies there---thanks, Baba and Pappy! (and red beets and homemade hrudka for me---thanks, Madge!!)

Then on Saturday, Rob and I had an egg hunt for Ella and Molly at home since Sunday would be so busy.  Molly enjoyed opening the eggs and looking inside and then trying to put the eggs back together.  She also LOVED eating the chocolate chips and marshmallows that were inside her eggs.  Ella had 12 eggs to find that each had several puzzle pieces in with her candy.  I made a puzzle that, once put together, had a message to tell her where her and Molly's baskets could be found---they were in their "Little House."  

On Sunday, we went to church and had an egg hunt there, too.  We spent the rest of the day with Rob's family, enjoying a delicious meal and having more goodies and another egg hunt from Nana and Granddad--thank you!
