Celebrating Christ's victory over death and our assurance of life everlasting when we put our Faith in Him...

Remember the Reason for this Season!!
Saturday evening found the Klimek Family facing 3 and a half dozen eggs that needed to be beautified and colored. (The other half dozen didn't make it past the boiling--even a minute crack needs to be eaten!!!) So, we pulled out the crayons and mixed up the dye and went to work. Some of us (Abby) were more excited than others (Austin and Andrew)...

~~~Andrew is hard at work making his egg lovely!
~~~Abby put a lot of time into making a special egg for the Easter Bunny...
(more to come on that later!)
~~~All done with the art project--we now have 42 beautiful Easter Eggs!!!!

After the whole Easter Bunny Egg Tragedy, I convinced Abby to redo the egg design on a plastic egg. That way, Sophie couldn't ruin it, and Abby can re-use it every year and put a special treat in the egg for the Bunny. She did re-make her special egg, and put a nice, leafy piece of lettuce in it for the Bunny to enjoy!
Have a Happy and Blessed Easter!
~~~Abby wrote a special letter to the Bunny in school last week. She also made him a special egg with a picture of the Bunny on it. She took that egg and set it on the coffee table with her letter so the Easter Bunny was sure to find it. Unfortunately, Sophie found it first. :-( Abby was VERY upset about this and scolded Sophie--not that Sophie cared--she just kept wagging her tail at poor Abby's tears. When it was all said and done, Abby peeled the special Easter Bunny Egg and gave it to Sophie, since "her saliva was all over it anyway".

Here is Sophie waiting for her special Easter Bunny Egg, trying her best to look contrite.

Abby.....I think your new and improved egg is really nice.....and I'm sure the Bunny enjoyed the lettuce inside of it since I'm sure he was getting rather full of hard boiled eggs. :)
Everyone here decorated eggs also...including Brooks and Carl who were just here to play video games. :)
At least Sophie didn't know any better....Matt took Emily's egg and ate it while we were still dying them....we felt bad for both of you.
Hope you all had a great Easter!
Austin looks thrilled....it is nice he takes part in it. :-) Carter thought Abby's Easter egg was very cool. On our vacation, the kids discussed the special egg that they were going to leave for the Easter bunny. Carter made one at school that he left out, along with a picture he colored at the lodge.
Woody, Maite & I did a few eggs too. Maite had never colored eggs this way before....I think they just draw on them. She really enjoyed it.
We had to use a birthday candle to write on them since we had no crayons!
Poor Abby, sorry that Sophie was a naughty doggie!
Love,
Gram Pat
PS I didn't see Jamie coloring eggs!!
