First we got to cook the eggs. Katie did awesome and I don't think she broke any eggs putting them in the pot
Then it was time to take them out again. These ones were coloured as they were cooking in water and some kind of natural red wood colour.
The traditional coloured eggs. Now it was time to decorate them with stickers.
Maya helped with this part, but after she was done she said it was a ball and threw it. She didn't do more after that.
And the final result! Yummy "Eier tätsch" for supper. (we take turns hitting eggs together and the one with the strongest shell wins)Easter Sunday
We really enjoyed the tradition that has developped for our Easter. Our family goes out to the farm for the weekend, but on Easter Sunday Jeff's parents come for dinner and the afternoon. We are so blessed that both sets of grandparents get along so well.
Katie was posing with her Easter loot, but I deleted the picture from this blog by accident and can't get it in the right spot anymore. We didn't do an Easter egg hunt until we got home. One smartie per egg makes for great entertainment for a while and spreads the candy much further.
Maya is all for chocolate on Easter. More so than Katie, but I'm not quite sure if more than Jeff;)
Reading her book with Grandma
Maya raring to go for the after dinner walk.
The grands
Maya liked the stroller. She was able to tell us when she wanted out and walk, but when she got tired she would get one of us and point to the stroller. "Up"
Katie was fishing in a puddle by the Waldkafi. She was very successful catching all kinds of leaves and sticks.
Grosi and Maya watching the "boys" throwing branches into the river.
Off walking with Grandma. Maya walked quite a while before she asked for the stroller again. Katie walked the whole loop along the river and back along the top.
More treats!! It was a great weekend for the chocoholics in this family. It was a great weekend!
