Easter is NEARING!!!!!!

Easter is next SUNDAY!!! 

What an honor that we have an amazing God who sent His Son to the world knowing that He would be murdered by the people that He loves. Only to raise Him from the dead and now we now longer have to offer sacrifices for forgiveness, instead all we need is Jesus in our hearts! Wow!!!! So on this past Sunday (Palm Sunday) it was so much fun seeing our two little boys up singing HOSANNA! HOSANNA! HOSANNA!!!!! They were so proud too at the front of the church, waving their palm branches up and down. So being a proud Momma I have to share this with you! In just a few years I won't be able to believe that they did this and it melts my heart to be their Momma. 

Little Eggs!

Here is an attempt at making the Mod Podge Easter Eggs balloons with yarn. Some of the water balloons deflated, which means that the yarn and mad podge turns into a round little rats nest. I was originally going to have them be on a garland but I wasn't expecting them to deflate so I choose to put them in a glass bowl instead. 

Things needed:

Yard

Scissors

Balloons

Mod Podge

Flat surface to let them dry (It took my more than 24 hours to dry)

Blow up as many balloons as you would like to have for either garland or decorations and then I would do a few extra!!!!  Pour out the mod podge in a bowl and then soak the cut yarn in the mod podge. I used smaller string and my friend used longer strings. It is up to you! Then start to wrap the balloon in whatever way you would like. I really like the all over criss-cross once the balloon is popped. Once you feel like enough of the balloon is covered with the yarn then you can start on the next one. Mod podge  has a stink to it and once it dries it is hard to get off your hands so.... Be CAREFUL!

And finally the eggs that made it through! I chose to do pastel, boy colors seeing how I am the only girl and not the biggest fan of pink and I didn't have a lilac so that was that! It was a blast getting to hang out with some friends for a couple of hours while the kiddos played.

My eldest son wanted me to share his special verse from Awana about Easter.
Luke 24:6
He is not here. He has risen!
