Trying to catch up on blogging here! Boy, I'm behind!
We had a wonderful Easter. Nothing too big. Just a regular dinner. Ham, of course, since I never pass up an opportunity to eat my favorite meat :) Plus, it's cheap and can be eaten forEVER in all sorts of recipes.
The girls enjoyed their baskets and egg hunting, as usual. This year, I bought blank puzzles and drew a map on each one, leading to where their basket was hidden. Then I broke up the puzzle and put the pieces in the plastic eggs. They had to put the puzzle together to find where their basket was. Although my cartography skills leave a lot to be desired, they did manage to find the baskets. We kept the candy to a minimum, and the girls ate only a portion of the small amount they got. Rudi and I devoured the rest in record time :)
We spent the afternoon at the Dyer playground, where the girls ran themselves ragged.
