ACTS 2:24

Get out your snip-snaps! I hope your scissor skills are terrific now because you’ll need them for the Easter verse I just designed.

Acts 2:24 “But God raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was impossible for Him to be held by its power.”

And this year I hid each word in Easter eggs for the kids to find. They loved it and it made it easier to keep track of the words! Somehow we seem to loose one every time. :) I really like this verse for Easter, and last year’s is super too – Matt 28:5-6. Love!

VAFFLOR

It’s that time of year again! Today is Swedish Waffle Day!!

We tried a new Swedish Waffle recipe that I found online, but it didn’t turn out. From what I gathered, Scandinavians use a different – and way cute! – heart waffle iron that I hope to own one day. The recipe was just too watery for my plain, deeper American waffle iron. So I jumped back online and found this recipe, tweaked what I previously made to salvage my batter, and Swedish Waffle Day was saved! But let’s be real, it’s hard to go wrong with a waffle when it’s drenched in maple syrup. :)

We also had mango ginger smoothies, and Han says Hi.

SMOOTHIES:

1 bag frozen mango

3/4″ fresh ginger cut into small pieces

Fill blender half way with almond milk

Fill the rest with orange juice

Flip the switch!

 

P.S. And here’s last year’s waffle recipe. ENJOY!!

Last Easter the kids and I made these little eggshell holders with sprouted seeds for gifts.

They really enjoyed planting in the tiny eggshells and watching the seeds sprout. I liked that they were practical, biodegradable and super-duper cute. :)
