It's Easter Already!

I admit that I am way behind on the blog posts. Be warned... we may be doing a few retrospective postings after this one. I can't believe it's already Easter. I can back this up by stating that I was up way too late last night doing last minute preparations for a holiday that I didn't want to acknowledge was right around the corner. The kids, however, were totally prepared. Here are their baskets. Reid's note translates to "Reid. Bunny. Hide the eggs hard but not too hard. Happy Easter."Notice the skein of yarn they left by their baskets. It is because they want the bunny to hide their baskets and attach them to a trail of yarn that they have to follow. The bunny must have gotten the hint.

Notice that it is still dawn, but not the total darkness that we have hunted for eggs in the past.

They each found a special gold & silver egg. That gold egg was crazy hard to find. I think it would help if we cleaned out our flower beds.
Here was my most foolish move of all. I decided to be like Ma on Little House on the Prairie and sew Easter outfits for my children. At midnight Robin felt bad for me and put the clasp on Reid's shorts. I'm happy with how they look, I just hope crewcuts does coordinating brother sister outfits next year.

CUTE! I love the trail of yarn. I caught a glimpse of the dress, but she was a girl on the move and I didn't want to stop her to get a closer view. Love it! Did you happen to get a pic of Reid and Banton? We got one, but the angle is weird.
