Easter Celebrations

We were planning to go to my parents on Easter Sunday, but my dad was going to be on shift at the fire station and wouldn't get to join us. So we switched it to Saturday and combined it with our April birthdays. I was in charge of making the cake. As usual, I went all out and it took me all day to do. I don't know how professional cake decorators do it! It's fun to do every once in a while and I enjoy the creative side of it. If you ever want some cute cake ideas go here, they are super easy (for the most part) and fun!
We had fun coloring eggs -- we got some interesting color combinations and designs. We played a fun game with them after they were dry. Everybody took a turn rolling their colorful decorated egg to the plain white egg in the center of the room -- they had to get the closest to it without touching it. We of course couldn't end without the traditional Easter egg fight.
The Easter bunny decided to come that day instead of Sunday -- we're trying to make Easter Sunday more special, not just about the loads of candy they get in their baskets. It seemed to work and the girls didn't care that they didn't get anything on Sunday.

Our awesome eggs, Ken hanging out with Sophie who was hooked up to her oxygen, and the girls with their baskets they found with their cousins.
