Passover and Easter

Time is just flying! We have had an extremely busy month, but we are having tons of fun and are spending lots of time with family and friends.

Grace and Jackson were able to celebrate both Passover and Easter this April. Grace put on an adorable skit at school, and we've been singing songs about matzah and baby Moses constantly. Jackson is fascinated with easter eggs, so we've been opening, filling, hiding, and finding eggs for months now! (Jelly beans were the all-time favorite.)


Grace enjoyed a lovely seder at school! They literally gave her 2 cups of raisins and chocolate chips...we had a great day after that!!

Grace and Allison laughing and playing (and kissing) at the Edelstein's seder.

We had a great Easter egg hunt at Pop Jerry's with Zachary. Grace hid all the eggs, then sprinted across the yard when the hunt began! We hid plastic and dyed eggs all around the outside of the house. We told them that they needed to be careful with the dyed eggs because they were breakable...Grace started calling them glass eggs and hid them all in a pile in the middle of the yard. Zach knew they didn't contain candy so he left them all to Grace; she was in heaven!!!!


Jackson enjoyed watching his sister and cousin run around like crazy fools. Once he found his first egg that contained jelly beans, he was content eating every single one of them while they hunted for the rest!


This was the result of his sister not sharing jelly beans with him!

Although this video probably won't be enjoyed by everyone, it makes me laugh harder and longer every time I watch it. Grace looks like she's going to fall asleep during the song, and finds energy only to yawn, pick her wedgie, and beat something up with a shovel! ...oh, and to clap for herself at the end of her performance!

  1. Ummm, I laughed so hard I cried just reading the set-up for the video! She is the world's cutest, smartest, funniest little girl...and I just can't get enough of her!

    More frequent updates, please...keep 'em coming! And nice action shots of the Easter egg hunt, I might add (no thanks to you for the shout-out). ;-)
