Easter

We had a nice Easter at our house again.  The kids had their egg hunt and Easter baskets. Lexa wore her dress I made with the smocking. We dyed eggs. We couldn’t get dye ordered in time at the last minute, but found out that the gel food coloring I had and vinegar worked great. Hugh and Will love hard boiled eggs and wanted to eat them as soon as they were dyed. 

There they go hunting for eggs!

The lamb cake is sitting up for the first time! Not even any repairs needed. He’s a pound cake. Will did a good job criscoing the pan and it came out pretty easy. People eating the neck, face and ears: beware of toothpicks! 

Then we forgot to eat him. We ate lunch late because he was in the oven and we couldn’t put the ham in. After we finally ate a nice lunch of ham, hard boiled eggs and easy prepared sides from HEB we watched Mighty Ducks for some reason. Then we noticed it was getting late so we hurried to start playing the dungeons and dragons game we’d promised Timmy for his birthday. That lasted all evening. The kids went downstairs to grab some leftover pizza while we played. Then when we were getting ready for bed, I saw the lamb still sitting there!
