Easter!- Sophie, 3 years old: "Jesus Saved us!"

Hope all of you had a wonderful Easter!

Thought I would share our Weekend..(I love being able to click back each year!)
The Easter bunny hopped through our house

and left some fun stuff to celebrate Jesus' Resurrection.. and a fewww sweets. ;)

Sophia was so funny..she kept telling us

"Jesus was trapped but then he went like that (does a wiggle) and got out!.. and he got the bad guys(??) and Heaven won!.....Jesus saved us!" haha...

It was a fun day of visiting with family, playing, eating & going to Church.
We even got in a 3 hour family nap..Easter miracle! seriously....
Thank you Jesus. haha we needed it.

Easter Baskets found at Jo-Ann's on clearance (only because I'm horribly last minute..)

I loved them! They are nice and sturdy too.

We have an Easter tradition that the Easter Bunny
and her stuffed animals have an Easter Tea Party!...
and when the girls wake up they can join in on it!

I found a tea set this year that a bit "fancier" for an older sophia..
(a tin one from Babies R Us)

Sienna immediately grabbed up a muffin as soon as she saw them..

she held it the whole morning until she put it in her Easter Basket for later. ;)

The Bouncy Balls the Eater Bunny found at Target were a hit!

I loved the colors..the girls loved rolling on them..

daddy loved throwing it at them and watching them giggle...............

I was so happy with the Tote Bag the Easter Bunny found at the Dollar Store

(and the bible drawing pad too!) The Bag said "Jesus my Forever Friend"..

they had a bunch of cute ones.

I LOVED seeing sienna open the eggs and discover what was inside!

She then went on to hoard all of the jelly beans... in her mouth.

It was an "Adventure" at mass on Easter...Sienna was feeling a bit...wild.

But we MADE IT! haha. and nap time soon followed.

The only family photo I have.. :) Easter Dinner with Ben's Family..

It was fun seeing all the kids play together..

and  a polish get together wouldn't be complete without some Kielbasa. ;)

We were sent home with leftover ham..

I am making Split Pea & Ham Soup with it tonight. yummy.

  

Family Floor Snuggles before bed time..

and sienna snuggling with the baby bump ;)

I love the shot of Ben snuggling with one of his ballerinas...hehe.

I grabbed up, the day after Easter, some discounted dresses from Target.

(Sophie is wearing hers) They call them their Wedding day dresses..

They posed for these photos. Sienna is wearing her ballerina

gear the easter bunny brought them. SOOO CUTEEEE.

The night before Easter Ben and I went with his

little brother, sister & her boyfriend to the phillies game!

I mean Pirates game.. ;) We lost. but it was still fun.. a fireworks night!

Can't wait to see all of your posts on your Easter!

Love seeing how everyone celebrates it.

VLOG: Our Easter Morning Bunny Tea Party

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter!

Here's a new Easter Morning tradition for us and our girls this year!!....
I used items from around the house and
 previous parties to put together a fun Easter Morning Bunny Tea Party to celebrate Jesus!
I only had to make a few small purchases to create this fun and festive tradition!
Nothing says a party like a garland, cupcake toppers and some party hats! ($1 bin at Target)
I found a great Tea Set at Toys R Us. $14

i grabbed up some easter-y stuffed animals that she had..i almost bought her more at the store...but remembered how we can barely contain

the stuffed animals that she already has! they are multiplying.

I put out some jelly beans, peeps, (all from the dollar store) 

goldfish(chickies actually & fruit snack bunnies (both from target)

strawberries..and one cupcake. i think in the end only the strawberries and one peep were eaten...and the jelly beans were used as play food haha. 

she kept calling them jumping beans. hehe.

Table cloth I purchased a while back from Target..pretty sure it was $5. 

I used the garland from Sophie's 2nd birthday party (Sweet Shoppe Theme)..

My Step by Step Circle Felt Garland Tutorial can be found here.

the little hostess came out of my sophia..

everyone got a taste of the tea party goodies! hehe.

I printed out some free Jesus is Risen! Coloring Pages.. keyword..FREE!

We have been enjoying the warm weather in 

between all the crazy amounts of rain!
Here's some shots from Easter Weekend.

Sophie insisted on pushing her sister..
which started the crashing into each other and non-stop giggles!!

I barely have any photos of later Easter Day..
things got busy with family!
But here are a few.. some from my camera and some from my phone.

I'm going to dress them up again later and re-create Easter

 morning all dressed up for church haha. a photo op at that moment 

just wasn't going to happen.  I don't have a single photo of me from Easter Day..

 but that  is a typical mommy thing right?? ;)
