Happy EasTer!

Well...This EasTer we slept in.  Sara found her Resurrection Eggs that the EasTer Bunny hid in the kitchen this year thanks to the much needed rain showers outside.  We took some time to open each egg and retell the EasTer Story.  You can find the preschool friendly version we used at: http://www.1plus1plus1equals1.com/Resurrection_Eggs.pdf 

For brinner (breakfast for dinner) we made our Resurrection Rolls...

We dipped the body of Jesus (marshmallow) in oil (butter) and rolled it in spices (cinnamon sugar) to place inside the linen cloth (crescent rolls). 

We placed these inside our tomb (oven) for 3 days (15 minutes at 350 degrees).

"He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.  Come and see the place where he lay."  Matthew 28:6

Happy EasTer 2012!  May the Lord bless you and keep you!

Special thanks to my Sister in Christ - Noelle...Without her inspiration, we wouldn't have these beloved traditions for our family!

"We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure." Hebrews 6:19
