Resurrection Cookies 2009!

We beat the nuts to remind us that Jesus was beaten for our sins...
We smelled the vinegar to remind us of what Jesus' was given when he was thirsty...
We put in the egg whites...to remind us of Jesus' life given to us so that we can have life eternal...
We tasted the salt to remind us of the tears of Jesus' followers and of the bitterness of our sins...
We tasted the sugar to remind us of the sweetness of salvation...
We watch the eggs beat for a LOONNGG time...11 whole minutes....
MomE put little rocky tombs on the cookie sheets....
If I look really cute...maybe they'll give me a cookie...???
We sealed the big tomb to remind us that there was a big stone in front of Jesus' tomb...
He is RISEN...in the morning we discovered the cookies were hallow...just like the tomb after three days...
Did we mention that there was sunrise service at church this morning...couldn't get picture of Sweet Boy with his eyes open!

If you want to see pictures of our family at in our Sunday finery you must head over to my other blog....Blogging Along....

The whole beating the nuts thing seems so violent for little ones, but I guess if it gets the point across! I like how when they open it it is empty inside - very cool! And yummy I'm sure! :)
