Easter

Will's Baptism and Confirmation

Paige's Uncle Will was confirmed and baptised into the Catholic faith today, so we went to the Easter service at St. George to support him. Abby was Will's sponsor. After church we had a celebration dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Loethen's house, and Paige enjoyed hanging out with her cousin Macy!

Easter Playdate at Macey's House

We were invited to Laurie and Macey's house for an Easter playdate. The Maschler family was there too which was really great because we were so happy to spend some time with the twins!

The playdate was a lot of fun! Laurie planned a really awesome Easter egg hunt for the girls. Each of them got to find a certain number of eggs and a special large egg that had her name on it.

Getting ready to start the hunt...the anticipation is building!

Paige found the egg with her name on it! Here are the girls opening their eggs to see what treasures are inside! Paige with her bunny ears and chicken!
Peeking in at one of the twins as the Maschler's were preparing to leave. Right after this, Paige proceeded to rock the car seat and sing rock-a-bye-baby. It was super cute!

Coloring Easter Eggs

Paige had a blast coloring Easter eggs today. We decorated two different ways: traditional dying and tie-dying with paint. To tie dye with paint, we just drop colored paint into bags and rub it all over the egg. Paige really liked to do this, but the eggs didn't come out as pretty as the traditionally dyed ones.

Here is Paige with all the essentials and ready to get started! Dropping in an egg!
Look at this pretty pink one!

Tie-dying an orange one!

Our finished products...aren't they pretty? Paige was really proud of her work!
