Easter 2014

Orion is a thirteen year old boy this year.

He still loves  Easter however.

Orion gets so excited about

Easter baskets,

Easter treats,

finding Easter eggs,

and dying Easter eggs.

Easter has always been a good time.  It brings

back good memories.

This year, we did something "new" with

dying Easter eggs.  It is a really old

idea, but it is something Orion has

never heard of or done before.

We colored the eggs with a crayon.

We put the eggs in this "spill-proof" container

after we colored our designs.

We waited for a few moments.......

and voila!!  The dye covers the egg, but not

where there is crayon.

It was fun doing something new this year.

 

Another thing we did new this year

was to make Easter egg cakes.

We made these from scratch.

It was fun to come up with interesting designs.

Orion loves the cakes.

 

Orion found his Easter basket on Easter morning.

 

This year for Easter, because

Orion is getting older,

the Easter Bunny had a difficult time

deciding what to get for Orion

Most of the Easter things sold at stores are for little children.

The Easter Bunny had a great idea this year though.

It is something Orion loves to do

The Easter Bunny brought a kite.

It is an Eagle kite.  Eagles are one of Bubba's

(Jerry) favorite things.  Bubba and Orion

have been having gun flying kites

this spring.  This it a special kite for them.

Easter Bunny. 

Inside it are Superman headphones,

a bag to put the headphones in to store,

and a box.  It is very cool.
