Older kids mean that Easter is fairly low key. I still give baskets, but they don't wake up at the crack of dawn to see them. It's more like 11.
I tossed some eggs in the backyard because they still enjoy egg hunts:
We went to my mom and dad's for Easter dinner. Mom had the table set up so nicely:
I totally forgot to take pictures of the food, but it was the basics of Easter: ham, deviled eggs, rolls, corn, etc...
However, I DID take photos of the pies.
Behold lemon meringue:
And pecan with not as many pecans because we like the syrupy middle:
We did not make the pies. Mom ordered from a woman who can make all sorts of pies. I always love people with make pies. I love to eat pies but making them? Not so much.
We ended up having a wonderful Easter!
Now I hope I can find cheap Easter chocolate at the grocery stories. I love those Cadbury Cream Eggs.
Agree with you on Cadbury Cream Eggs!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a happy Easter! Ours was pretty low key but nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recap, this looks like it was a pretty amazing Easter.
ReplyDeleteThose are some pretty pies. I spent my Easter planting my garden.
ReplyDeleteThe pies look delicious! My Easter was pretty chilled too.
ReplyDeleteWow those pies look so good! Which one was your favorite?
ReplyDeleteI love that your kids still get baskets. More so that they still enjoy these simple yet fun things with the family.

ReplyDeleteSounds like you guys had a fantastic Easter. My son was at his dad so I was all alone. I ended up working for 3.5 hours. It was busy so it went by quickly. Then I came home and relaxed with the animals.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a nice Easter too! Those pies did look tasty! And yes, pie making is A LOT!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a lovely easter. My girls are now teens, so we did a quick obligatory egg hunt as well. It is nice that you had a family dinner.
