Missed Adventure- EASTER!!!

Last year Grace Louise could sit in this Easter basket and this year, here she is toting it around, investigating the treasures inside, and hunting for eggs. It's amazing how quickly they grow and change in these early years! And again, we are enjoying creating our own traditions for the holidays, always trying to point Grace Louise to the glory of our Savior!

  • Resurrection Eggs- really cute way to tell the Easter story, each egg containing a symbol of some part of the story. Grace Louise played with ones that I borrowed from a friend the week before Easter, and now has her very own dozen to enjoy!
  • VeggieTales- Twas the Night Before Easter DVD- I played this for Grace Louise during breakfast on Easter morning, but she doesn't have the attention span for shows or movies yet. It's the thought that counts, though, right?
  • Easter Surprise- look/flap board book. The best one I could find for her age at the Christian bookstore. She LOVES this book and says "knock knock" on all the flap doors. Very cute.
  • A stuffed bunny and duck that were given to her last Easter- one of the joys of the early years- they don't remember what you gave them last year and they are still just as excited to get it again!
  • Organic Surf Sweet Jelly Beans- the closest this child will get to candy for a while! They're actually delicioso, made with apple juice concentrate!

Enjoying her jelly beans!

This brought back lots of memories for me, hunting eggs with cousins on Easter. So much fun!


I get by with a little help from my friend.


Hope your Easter was just as blessed as ours and that you have true joy that comes from trusting in our resurrected Lord!
