Cookies and Eggs

Jax helped make cookies for our Easter Sunday lunch.  He had lots of fun rolling the dough and cutting out flowers and bunnies.  He did a great job. 

What's Easter without the traditional dyeing of the eggs?  We had a busy Saturday so I almost forgot to boil the eggs but luckily I remembered just before dinner so after a few slices of pizza the Dooner family made colorful eggs for our hunt the next day.  Oh..... if only they would have made it that long.  I can't remember who cracked the first one but by the time we were finished all six were cracked.  John made an egg for each of us with our names and Jax helped him decorate them.  Jax had a hard time waiting during the dyeing process.  He kept reaching in the cups to take out the eggs.  After we were finished I was putting them in the refrigerator and dropped the bowl so all the eggs cracked - so much for using them in our hunt.  Cracked eggs didn't take away from the fun.  Jax loved watching them change colors and putting stickers on them.  After a quick bath we enjoyed a cookie and watching It's the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown before climbing into bed with visions of a bunny hopping in our heads.
