The day before Easter we had fun dyeing our eggs...
Sarah and Kaleigh were partners....

And so were Scott, Shayla and I.

Peyton was napping, so we did
hers for her. She liked it!

Easter morning the girls woke up and searched for their baskets. They found 'em!

Scott and I got started on our feast-prep. He cleaned the turkey. Thank goodness cause I have a phobia of raw poultry.
lol
Then we all got fancy for church. The girls looked gorgeous in their matching dresses!

Our 3 Musketeers!!!

The girls got eggs that really hatch in their baskets.
All's you have to do is put them in water. They stood there waiting for an hour. Poor things! It took 3 days for the dang things to hatch.

After church we watched a video about the
Resurrection and then the girls played with some of their new goodies. This is their mini bowling set.

Then we headed into the backyard for their
Easter egg hunt. Peyton wasn't interested. She just wanted to ride around.
Kaleigh was the winner, but gave half of her eggs to Peyton out of sympathy. That's our sweetheart!

Shayla was proud of her "treasure". She did great too!

After that we sat down to dinner. This was the first turkey we had ever done by ourselves. It was the best one we've ever had! Well, not really. It was disgusting! It over cooked and was as dry as the
Sahara. Yuck! We, luckily, had homemade mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, creamed corn and jello salad to save us from starvation. For dessert we had a delicious
Lemonello Cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory.
It was a very relaxing and sweet Easter. We hope you all had the same...

Sounds like so much fun! By the way you know the picture of all 3 girls in the easter dresses (the close up) can i have a copy? that is so so adorable!!! glad you had a good day!!
I can't get over how grown-up Kaleigh is looking!
I'm glad you had a nice Easter - I can't wait until Axton can dye Easter eggs with me and go on a hunt!
Love you!
What fun! I loved that you even cooked a turkey...how festive of you!
for a perfect turkey, try brining it. There are tons of recipes online. It is impossible to have it come out dry. Happy Spring. We miss you guys.
