Easter morning we woke to eggs filled with candy, a new toothbrush, a bunny in a car that says "Happy Easter", and a rolling play toy for Maggie. This was really fun but most importantly we got to celebrate the Ressurection of our Savior. The night before we made cookies that explained the Easterd story. We beat the nuts with a spoon just as Jesus was beaten. We added vinegar because this was given to Jesus to drink on the cross. We added some other ingrediants and put them in the oven and shut the door until Easter morning just as Jesus was put in the tomb. We opened the oven door to find our cookies that were hollow inside that represented that the tomb was hollow-EMPTY because He is alive and no longer in the tomb!!
We have the same rolly toy!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome cookie analogy, can you send the whole thing to me?
How did you get your cookies to be hollow???? Mine did not work out!! Of course putting cookies together with 10 hands does give you a higher probability for something to go wrong!! right?? That's my story and I'm sticking to it :).
