Easter preperations

Some of our favorite Easter things:

Emilee loves to make the Easter story cookies. You make these the night before and there is a lesson in every step, then you put them in the oven until morning, when you get up they are hollow in the middle, which represents the empty tomb and Jesus' ressurection!

Coloring eggs, we will be doing this tonight after Briana gets home from work.

Buy some chocolate bunnies.

New dresses- which is really what this post is about. Miss B at church asked me if I wanted to borrow Brooklyns dress from last year for Isabelle. Well, we were in IL. last year, so I didn't know what it looked like. It is BEAUTIFUL! When she brought it to me, Miss C asked if I thought Isabelle would wear it. I laughed and said " she is only a year old, she doesn't get to decide what she will wear". I decided this morning to try it on her (Sat. the day before Easter). She immediately started to throw a fit and tried to pull it off. So,after we took several pictures I called Ted who was in town and asked him to go find Isabelle a new dress. Tomorrow I will post pictures of all the kids in their Easter attire. So you won't think the boys were left out, Mason got a new shirt and tie and I found Andrews outfit at a consignment sale with the tags still attached.
