Day 7 - Easter bits and pieces

Delicious cupcakes made and shared with lovely neighbours.....

Good Friday visit to the temple {my favourite Easter tradition}! I LOVE this more every year!!!

Traditional Easter egg painting - and yes, Chad is painting a circle here not an egg :) For some reason the rest of Sydney decided to buy all of the foam eggs before I could make our purchases this year, so it was either circles, or real eggs. We went with the circles which worked out perfect for Chads art :)

As for the kids, they didn't even really notice :)

Some members of the family prefer to paint minus half their clothes. It does make the clean up much easier........

......especially for a little girl that after about 10 minutes, had paint everywhere :)

We had our annual last supper (which reminded me of our trip to the middle east. sigh :)

We spent Easter Saturday picnic-ing, apple picking and photo snapping with family. It was a beautiful day of perfect weather!

I lost count of how many apples Lily ate while the rest of us picked :)

Jasmin attempting to get the nicer apples that were a little higher :) her squeals of delight were like music to my ears!

My babies have no idea how lucky they are that this man is their dad!!

 My double digits boy who is growing much too fast

and delicious food made with said picked apples!!

The Easter bunny visited our back yard, and as a result, Jasmin has prayed for him everyday since. He must be a very blessed bunny by now :)

Oh and we started renovating......

But much more about that later!!!!
