We started our celebration by having a "passover" dinner on Thursday to remind us of the Last Supper.
The kids love doing easter egg hunts each year and loved having an easter egg hung outside and inside. With the pandemic this year, Shantel and also also went to a few neighbors/friends and set out easter eggs for an easter egg hunt for them (Shantel and the kids sanitized their hands before touching the eggs). They would place all the eggs, ring the doorbell and run away.
On Saturday night we had the kids collect rocks from the grass and put them in their baskets and put them inside of this little table to represent going into the tomb. Then that night we took the baskets out of the table and filled them with a few treats and books. Then when the kids went to get there baskets we told them that the rocks represent the sin, trials and troubles we face in the world and talked about how Jesus Christ and his power save us from these.
A couple of Easter family pictures.
Finally, on Monday Shantel and the kids did Easter egg decorating.
