Off to the Movies ...

Easter Movie "Hop"
Apr. 22 , 2011
It was a rainy day ... the kids were antsy ... needed something to do ...
we decided to go into town and see a movie ...
all buckled in the Van and we're off ...
It was the perfect Easter movie ...
with our bags of popcorn, pop, and licorice ...
excitement and laughter ....

Leaving the movie it turned out to be a pleasant day ...
back at the house ...
riding bikes down the hill into the field ...
going for a walk in the forest ..
playing in the sandbox ...
going down the slide and trying out all the swings ...
yipeeeee.... !!!

After dinner ...
it was time to set the table to colour our Easter eggs ...
excited to try this new technique that was sent from Dagmar ...
using food colouring, wet paper towels, and foil wrap ...
the kids had a blast creating these colourful, tye-dyed eggs ...
we also had the traditional colour tablets in cups of water and vinegar ...
waxed crayon designs were drawn onto the eggs ...
 then carefully dropped into the cups...
( well ... a few were dropped carefully ... )
patiently ...
awaiting the results ...
a family creating together ...
what joy .... !
