It's an Easter tradition!

Each year our spring break falls the week before Easter.  Last year we stayed home for Spring Break, but I wanted to make sure it was a fun, "different" week for my boys.  We allowed each child to pick the menu for a breakfast, a lunch, a dinner and one activity for the week.  We grouped all the submissions into their respective categories and each night we chose the menu and activity for the next day.  It was so much fun!  More fun than I had imagined and the boys were thrilled with their Spring Break!

The "activity" we chose for our daughter/sister (since she is too young to choose for herself) was to host an Easter party and egg hunt for her and her little friends.  We did it again this year, so it's official....it's now a tradition!

The boys and I work together to stuff eggs, make carrots out of napkins and utensils, bake cute cupcakes, create Easter themed decorations.....all the necessary components of a fun, memorable party.

My favorite part is seeing the joy my boys feel as they serve their sister and it's all worth it to them when she says, "Dant du, Date and Owen!"  That's "thank you, Nate and Owen!"
