Easter Get Together

On Good Friday we had a before Easter get together with my sister and family.  Easter is such an important holiday so we wanted to make sure we are establishing Easter traditions as well as we do for Christmas time.

We made Resurrection rolls!  These are a fun tradition with kids to tell the Easter story.  They actually taste pretty good too!

We had an Easter egg hunt!  This one actually contained no candy.  It had letters to put together to make a message, and little toys.

The girls working hard to put together the message

Jesus Loves Us!

Then we enjoyed lunch together with sandwiches cut in little Easter/Spring shapes.

Do you remember these from when you were kids??  I had not seen them in a long time.  You put the little capsule in water and then it turns into a little foam dinosaur.
