Here's all of our dyed eggs

Next we made Resurrection Cookies. Here the kids are breaking the pecans to tiny pieces to represent Jesus being beaten by the Romans

Elijah is taking a sniff of vinegar, which is to remind us that when Jesus was on the cross he was given vinegar to drink.

Eggs represent Jesus's life (we got a twin yolk!)

The egg whites are super white and fluffy to remind us that Jesus was without sin

Happy Easter!!!

I forgot to get a picture of the cookies, but here is the oven sealed up with tape like Jesus's tomb was sealed... In the morning we'll open the oven (you turn off the oven after putting them in and they cook all night) and have hollow cookies.

... and the ever important Easter basket (the plastic eggs are hidden already!!)
