easter fun

Tara had pigtails in the day before thats why we have the wild and crazy hair.

For Easter I thought it would be fun to share some of the traditional holiday activities, dyeing Easter eggs and an Easter Egg hunt. I didn't know if Tara would have fun or really understand what we were doing but I thought I would give it a try, and to my surprise she LOVED every minute of it!!!
Tara had dyed eggs the day before at daycare so she was an old pro by the time we got to dyeing ours. She remembered exactly what to do, she even got mad at me when I was not prepared with the spoons in time; isn't it amazing on how much their little minds pick up.
For the egg hunt the Easter Bunny decided that he would leave the eggs at Grandma Gnehm's house. Everytime Tara found a new egg she would take off running yelling "ohhhh". She had soo much FUN looking for eggs she wanted to continue after she had already found them all, so needless to say mom and dad had to hurry and hide more when she wasn't looking so we could continue the FUN; she was just being so stikin' CUTE we just couldn't help ourselves!!!

What a CUTE story. I am so happy she enjoyed it so much. I know some parents who have a three year old and haven't ever introduced him to coloring eggs or anything easter. I thought, "sheesh depriving the poor child." I'm glad to hear you have introduced it to Tara and she like it. What a cutie!

Your blog is so cute! Tara is just adorable! I love how excited the little ones get; doesn't it make you feel like a kid again?! You will have to bring her over some time to play.
