Sisters Pre-Easter Event

Easter is one of those MAJOR HOLIDAYS...and often, the best part of it is the anticipation and preparation. So, with that in mind, I invited my sister Ronda and her granddaughter, Memphis, to my house so we could do some egg coloring, Easter crafting and cooking...
We were drinking our first cup of coffee when the girls did their first big DRESS UP...
Lilly was showing Memphis how to do a "curtsy"...(Memphis was not interested)
They both looked GREAT in their pink chiffon/organza/multi-layered skirts...
Each girl had 18 eggs to color...or decorate...there were crayons, and stickers...
It was a beautiful day -- so we moved out on the porch to do the Easter-shaped sugar cookies (the cookies were from the grocery store refrigerator case...perfect)
Another dress-up...they both liked these options
What a wonderful day we had!! Lilly and Mem dressed up several times, they colored the Easter eggs, then had several "hunts" in the living room, they made the cut out sugar cookies (with sprinkles), and then we poured some jello into molds (shaped like eggs and bunnies).
There was the usual treasure-hunt....
And, Oh, yes, we know how lucky we are...
