A Long Awaited Update!

Happy Easter!!!


Our family Easter morning...

Daddy, Mommy
Joshua, Miriam


Joshua got a little GOLF set and LOVES it. Miriam likes to carry around the clubs and balls too. The Vikings hat served as his basket from G'ma & G'pa Harvala.



Looks like a pretty good swing to me.

We tried it out before the second service.


"Grandma Shel" and Miriam kinda matched with they pink on Easter.

So we took a picture.

We colored eggs a new way this year.

1. Put a few, up to 6 I suggest, in a strainer in the sink
2. "splash" more like pour 1/4 or 1/2 cup vinegar over the eggs
3. Drop food coloring on eggs (just like Joshua is doing there with the yellow)
4. Hold strainer, swirl eggs around, let set 30 seconds
* at this time we worked with a 2nd strainer in the adjoining sink while the coloring set *
5. repeat steps 3 & 4
6. It's suggested to use only 2 or 3 colors for each group of eggs you do or the colors will get "muddy" looking.
It was SUPER fast and a lot less preparation & cleanup! By the time we were done Joshua's attention span was done also, so it all worked out well!



Sink #2



Joshua was the master colorer.

What our eggs turned out like. Oh, and all the food coloring/vinegar on the towel washed out... no sign of it at all and I didn't even pre-treat it! Just used Norwex laundry detergent.

Boy! Joshua really does have the hang of the golf swing, doesn't he?
With a little help from his Daddy
he'll be ready to golf in no time!

Miriam is very pretty in her Easter dress...good thing she has another "grandma" to have holiday pictures with!
