This entry is part 14 of 22 in the series Proverbs 31 Hands On

Proverbs 31: 25b

She can laugh at the days to come.

Top: Leah, Myself, Claire Bottom: Molly & Ryan

Where do I even begin? I’m laughing too hard, at my Easter portrait, to even write.

The hair, the eyes, the body positions, the missing husband, oh. my. word. Please laugh with me, not at me! Ah, the “perfect” family photo – so far from my grasp! You know you try to snap “the one for the wall” on Easter too, right?  ;)

I just can’t help but laugh at my feeble attempt to capture the perfect moment.

When, really, I’d like to remember the simple little imperfect moments that happened on Easter.

  • My resurrection rolls that popped open in the oven. I had to scoop out the marshmallows with a spoon while the kids weren’t looking, as to not confuse them by having “Jesus” still in the tomb.
  • We ate jelly beans with breakfast.
  • Witnessing several Baptisms at the Easter service – gives me joy every time I see one!
  • Ryan ran around the farm (Pete’s Uncle’s house) in play clothes chasing chickens, getting dirty and hunting for garter snakes.
  • Claire and Leah stayed in their Easter dresses all day without spit-up! My dress on the other hand…
  • Molly loved to smack her lips with her new lip gloss from her Easter basket because it made her feel, “Fancy, Fancy!”

Laughing Daily,

Jess

1. Get out! Look at these yummy ultra-adorable cupcakes. Amy, from the Idea Room, shares how to make ‘em! I think, I’d just plain feel bad eating such a lovable face! ;)

2. Becca from Blue Cricket Design shows us how to make tissue paper eggs. I’d love to have some eggs that were savable from year to year, wouldn’t you?

3. Darling alert! The Creative Maven entered this darling egg topiary into Living with Lindsay’s $5 Challenge.  Isn’t it darling? The lettering could easily be switched to spell RISEN!

4. You all know, I’m a huge sucker for felted crafts. Look at these felted egg place holders! Ack, I’m in love! Pamela from the blog, Pamela Susan, gives us a tutorial and lovely photographs!

5. Resurrection rolls from Smashed Peas and Carrots. She includes step by step instructions on how to make them. Yum! What a fun way to teaches the little ones about Jesus at Easter.

Be sure to stop over to all the Blink Links above and give them some comment love!

Have a very good Good Friday and Blessed Easter Sunday!

Love,

Jess

Happy Easter from Claire & Leah!
