Getting Ready for Easter!

We had a fun day on Saturday filled with a lot of fun activities!
We started the day at our neighborhood's 'Egg Scramble':
Grace checking out the competition for eggs
Josh and Griffin heading into the egg hunt
On the hunt!
Grace took it quite seriously : )
Griffin leading Grace around
Griffin was so excited about the candy in the eggs!

Later that day we dyed Easter eggs. Griffin had so much fun. He liked to move the egg to multiple different colors, and thought it was so funny to see the colors change:
We also decorated our tree outside for Easter:
Later that day we went to the Children's Museum:
Griffin loved playing with the instruments they had out!
Griffin and Grace riding the train - they were both so excited! Griffin took his driving quite seriously.
At one point he turned around and put Grace's hand on the wheel to show her how to drive - he's a great big brother!
Griffin had a blast playing on the fire truck. This was the first time he put the fire hat on - I've been asking him if he wanted to for three years, and he finally did it!
Standard: he spent tons of time screwing the fire hose on the truck
Grace all dressed up in the dress up area
And checking herself out!

Even later that day, Griffin helped me make a bunny cake for Easter. I remember making these as a child, so it was fun to make it with Griffin!
Shaking the bag of coconut was so fun for Griffin!
Putting the bunny ears on
And our finished cake!
