Easter 2011

We spent this year's Easter with my parents and had a great weekend with lots of Easter festivities. First on the Easter to-do list was dyeing eggs. Jake enjoyed it and did a remarkably good job not getting any dye on his clothes... Here's Papa and Jake with the dye line-up...

Next on the list (not all back-to-back) was an Easter egg hunt. Jake gave good effort this year, and found over 50 eggs in his one-man search. He's just not quite ready for any detectective work yet...

Here's all the eggs he found in the house...

Then, after a little snack for a pick-me-up, he headed to a hunt outside...

He started off the hunt by finding one egg and opening it before moving on to the next egg. By the end of the hunt, the surprises inside weren't so surprising so he then started gathering several at a time...

Next on the list--our attempts at family pictures...

Easter morning finally arrived and we were able to do the next thing on the list...check out what the Easter bunny brought...I think Jake was still waking up...

But he got some cool treats...

We also went to church and had a delicious Easter lunch. I didn't get any pics of us all dressed up, but that's OK. We had a great time celebrating fun Easter traditions, but most importantly remembering and celebrating Jesus' resurrection.
