We do things a little differently in our house, especially Easter!
On Friday we dye eggs.
This was Ellie's "first" time!
(We didn't get a chance to do it last year and she wouldn't remember her first Easter)
The next morning we do an egg hunt!
Mr. Dawson had to do some service Saturday morning so Ellie and I hid eggs for him, and a few for her!
As soon as he came home they went hunting!
Then we sent Ellie upstairs to watch a sing-a-long and we hid eggs for her.
She was fully aware that we hid eggs for her.
And she was so excited to find them all!
Every time she found one she would say, "Thank you for hiding my egg!"
Another tradition (that ended up not happening for Mr. Dawson this year) we get a new outfit for church.
It can be a new dress, new shoes, a new shirt, a new skirt, a new tie....you get the idea.
Ellie and I got dresses.
She also got new shoes out of necessity!
=)
The eggs were hidden high and low for Ellie!
These are the eggs we dyed!
Sunday is the day we focus completely on the true reason for Easter.
Here's us girls in our Easter dresses:
This was a new recipe that I tried called "The Cake"
It was DELICIOUS!!!
And addicting!
Consider yourself warned!
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter as well!
