Easter Celebration Part One

We've been enjoying celebrating Easter this week.  Scarlett loves for me to hide eggs in the living room over and over again.  On Thursday, we went over to my sister's house and had a mini celebration with all the girls.

First, Mandy made Easter cookies for them to decorate!

Then it was time for an Easter craft.  They made tombs using paper plates to help them learn visually more about Jesus's resurrection.  

They open up the plate to show a picture of the empty tomb.  

Jesus is alive! He is Risen! Death could not keep him!  

Great idea Mandy!

Of course we also colored and decorated Easter eggs.

 And then we had an egg hunt in their backyard. Scarlett only picked up about three eggs before saying she was done and wanted to go swing.
