Good Friday

Our Good Friday was oh so good. The weather can't quite decide what it's doing though so we've been alternating between snow covered ground and brown grass. I am looking forward to packing up the snow gear until next year. 

Mr. Stannix had the day off yesterday and we kicked off our weekend with breakfast at iHop. The kids each got a funny face pancake, I enjoyed a huge plate of french toast and Mr. Stannix had an egg sandwich. I enjoyed having him around all day to help with the kiddos and snuggle Finley while I tried to get stuff done.

After dinner we decorated Easter eggs. It's been a tradition since forever and the littles are finally catching on to the whole thing. 

We had a vast array of colors and some crayons to get the job done.

Joe started out with the trustee whisk to avoid any casualties...

But quickly graduated to the spoon after watching the older two.

Hyrum LOVED putting his eggs in the food coloring mixture.

And concentrated extra hard when it came to scribbling on them.

Camilla got extra creative and made a few two toned eggs. She was pleased as punch about those little eggs of hers.

Mr. Stannix always puts a lot of effort into his eggs.

He turned his two into "Fire" and "Water".

Here's his game face for the egg champ which will take place tomorrow!

I loved hanging out with this little man and watching. It seemed weird to have such a quiet Easter, just our little family.

Surprisingly we only had one casualty the entire evening.

Lots of fun had by all, even if my minions looked more like egg heads than minions.
