Pre-Easter Festivities

It suddenly occurred to me on Friday that Easter is next weekend. I've been so out of touch with time lately, it just snuck up on me. The kids helped me decorate the house that morning and I finally started feeling the Easter spirit.

Yesterday, I started preparing for our Easter feast next weekend by baking and frosting cookies with the kids (the amazing sugar cookie recipe is here)






And today we colored Easter eggs.


Plus, I got the kids dressed up in their Easter duds and took pictures of them before things get crazy next weekend. It's so hard to get cute pictures of the kids on holidays when there are 15-20+ people manipulating their time and attention! I highly recommend taking pictures a few days before big events or holidays. SO much less stressful for everyone!

That is a GREAT idea! Last year with all the hoopla I never took any pictures of the kiddo on Easter. Now I can't even remember what he was wearing. After just one year. Can you say "mommy brain"?

LOL
