Getting ready for Easter weekend

Today my niece and her family are coming to our house to spend the Easter weekend with us.  They should already be there but I am stuck at work and cannot get out of here until 5:00.  I have not seen them since Christmas so am looking forward to visiting with them and playing with the boys.  Mason turns 4 on Thursday so we are celebrating his birthday here this weekend and he wants a blue cake.  Nonnie and John picked up the cake mix and frosting today so I will make that tonight.  We will also fill easter baskets tonight.  I picked up some regular old egg dye at Walgreens today but am still looking for the Paas Color Swabs.  I will try to get out to Walmart tonight for those and for Mason's Birthday present.  I also bought some brushes so we can paint with food color.  We will have fun no matter what we do...as long as we keep a positive attitude and not expect perfection from the children!

I was going to make some sugar cookies for them to decorate but I did not get to it.  Oh well, I think we have enough to do to keep them busy...or at least keep me busy. I hope I can get pictures this weekend and then get them downloaded so I can add them to my next posting.
