Dying of eggs.
"Oh no, Mom, she's leaning on me!!!"
We were all up early for church followed by a wonderful brunch for the extended family at our #3 son's home. The weather was a little cooler than normal but perfect for the party. All in all, there were somewhere around 100 family members in attendance and all had a fabulous time.
18 of the 21 grandchildren - one was at college, one home sick and the last one was too busy playing.
Inflatables set up in an area of the yard.
Enjoyment by all ages!
Little ones ready to find their eggs.
5 years old and above for their egg hunt.
I had a bit of fun sewing time with the granddaughters this past week as well. Two of the girls came over to sew their Easter dresses and jackets.
They loved their work.

You always have such great family things to share. Love the jeans with the indian outfit. She really did a good job. As did your other grandaughters with their Easter dresses. Looks like Easter was tons of fun at your house.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family! You must be very proud of your children and grandchildren!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun Easter celebration!!!! Can't wait to entertain my own grandkids someday...!
ReplyDeleteOh, Mary, I am simply in awe of how big your family is when most of you are gathered together!! The children must just love these get togethers, they always look like they're having so much fun:-)
ReplyDeleteThe girls really did do a fabulous job making their Easter dresses and that Native outfit is amazing as well!! I think Grandma has taught them well how to sew:-) I'm always wondering what Lily will like doing when she's older...her mom doesn't do any type of sewing or crafts, doesn't collect anything, etc. So, she really does need to come visit me so that I can introduce her to faeries...right? hehe
I'm like you, I so miss my own boys being small and having fun during the various holidays. I remember how much they loved dyeing the eggs for Easter:-) Loved all your photos!! xoxox
what a beautiful time you all had!
ReplyDeleteand those 2 little ones are so sweet! they look like they were cut out of a magazine- such beautiful little faces
What a precious bunch of grandchildren you have. Looks like great fun.
ReplyDeleteThe girls did a wonderful job with their pretty Easter dresses, and the indian costume is fantastic. Looks like Grandma has taught the girls well :)
