Easter Warm Up

We had a wonderful Easter weekend.  On Saturday morning we dyed Easter eggs.  Evangeline had been excited all week about this activity.

It was a thrill to drop in the little color tablets and listening to them "hiss".  

She chose all the colors.  

And she was mostly careful when dropping in the eggs.

Gently she placed them on the box to dry.

She was ever so proud of the end result! 

Later that afternoon we went to my dad's house for a little Easter celebration Walters style.  It's a smaller crowd without my beloved Aunt Jeanne, but she is always with us in our thoughts and conversation.  It was also a little smaller because Candice couldn't be there.  We missed her too.

The typical scene at Daddy's house...plants, pottery and signs of a delicious meal shared.

Evangeline had a bonus Easter egg hunt with Grandma and Uncle Zachary in Daddy's front yard. 

She loves to point out "signs of spring" and I showed her how I used to stamp them when I was little, the way my mom taught me.
