Happy Easter


Easter is not a time for groping through dusty, musty tomes or tombs to disprove spontaneous generation or even to prove life eternal. It is a day to fan the ashes of dead hope, a day to banish doubts and seek the slopes where the sun is rising, to revel in the faith which transports us out of ourselves and the dead past into the vast and inviting unknown. ~Author unknown

Easter Eggs

I have no idea from which blog I got the idea, but this year, we used my scrapbook punches and masking tape to detail some of our colored eggs. The kids keep getting older and wanting more artistic expression to be reflected in their creations. This technique definitely gave us the opportunity to spread our egg coloring wings. As you can see by the picture, we learned as we went along, but the kids said, "this was the most fun EVER!", so I guess we'll be doing it again next year. Superman liked the idea of pinstriping and Valiant was going for a modern art vibe. Buttercup and I played the most with the punches. The masking tape was a pain to work with, be we thought the results were worth the effort.




Happy Easter!
