We had a fun and enjoyable Easter this year, here is how we celebrated:
Glowy Eggs
We kicked off the holiday by having our annual glowy egg hunt the weekend before Easter.
Apparently glowy eggs have become a trend because Wal-Mart now sells miniature sized glow sticks intended to fit into plastic eggs. This is sooooo much easier than trying to bend the bigger ones in half!

Egg Dye
The kids enjoyed coloring a few hard boiled eggs on Saturday.
Translation: Baby Girl enjoyed decorating eggs, the Little Man enjoyed discovering how to crack open the shells ;)
Painting Eggs
After coloring the real eggs, the kids had a fun time painting up a few foam eggs too.
Easter Baskets
The kids woke up on Sunday morning to buckets filled with all sorts of fun outside activities and a bit of candy too :)
Low-Key Table
A bit of filler grass and yellow napkins added a small festive touch to our brunch table.
Centerpiece
A yellow napkin topped with filler grass and a handful of 'carrot' eggs created a simple and colorful centerpiece.
Peeps
The kids love these, I think they are gross. But, they add so much cuteness to our brunch! So I bought a pack to dress up our plates and smoothies.
Brunch
A breakfast casserole and colorful smoothie.
I made our smoothies 'Eastery' by topping with jelly beans and a bunny peep. Use a knife to cut a slice into the peep and they will fit nicely on the rim of any glass.
Easter Eggs
This years eggs contained either jelly beans or coins. I filled 24 for each kiddo, color coding them to prevent squabbles ;)
Can you see them?
Yeah, so I forgot how green camouflage eggs would 'disappear' into the lawn. Sorry Little Man, it's a good thing you have a sweet big sister ready to help you! Poor kid....
:D :D :D
Hatching Bunnies
You didn't know that bunnies hatch from Easter eggs? Well they did this year! The kids had a good time soaking and then breaking apart these eggs to find the toy bunnies inside.
I found these 'hatchable' eggs at Wal-Mart, $3 for a set of two.
And that was our relaxing Easter Sunday.
I hope you enjoyed this holiday post, thanks for stopping by!
