Happy Easter the final chapter

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY

We woke up and the boys were so excited to find their baskets and new motorbikes
from the Easter bunny.
Noah kept doing his Superhero pose, because he now has a Superhero bike :-)


 They took a race around the yard
while Nick dragged his bag around with him

After church we went to Grandma Wendy's house for a
and Easter egg hunt and dinner


 

Best quote from the whole day was Noah
"Mom, I'm proud of myself for going to church today"

I'm proud of you too Noah!

Happy Easter part two!

Saturday we went over to Collin's cousin's house for a pre-Easter celebration. We walked over to the park and hunted for eggs.






 Riley got her first skinned knee,
She couldn't walk up the hill, just kept rolling down. Even just trying to get her to sit on the hill she would roll.
Think I need to call her rolly polie now
Noah ate most of his candy before we even made it back to the house,
and Nick would barely leave my side.


After the egg hunt we went back to their house and had a BBQ and visited the rest of the time. All in all a perfect way to end the afternoon and get the boys excited for Easter Sunday the next morning.

Good Friday

This is a fun filled weekend! We started it off with a little Easter Egg Hunt at Golfland Sunsplash (where Courtney works). The kids had a blast looking for eggs. Riley just wanted to hold the eggs and not put them in her bag. And Noah ended up with a bag full of them, and we had to put most of them back. (Each kid had a limit of ten eggs)

That is a pretzel in her mouth- she would NOT give it up!



And we ended the night at Grandma Wendy's house to dye some eggs,
 Noah decided if the eggs were done by smelling them.

This years Easter cake

Top favorite Easter candies?

1. Robin Eggs
2. Sixlets
3. Chocolate...any kind

Mix with the wonderful invention of Rainbow Chip icing and you get this!


I made a funfetti cake (the best since it has sprinkles in it!), let it cool.
Then I cut it in half and adding a laying of icing between my two cake half's.

Then iced with rainbow chip icing.
Topped with green coconut
 (mix about 2 T spoons of water with some green food coloring
and coconut- in a gallon size ziplock bag and shake)

Added the Bunny on top with Robin eggs all around then
Sixlets around the bottom.

Cute, fun and delicious cake and easy to make cake!

Tulle Tulle and more Tulle

For the last month I have been busy sewing Easter bags. My cousin text me one day and said she saw some cute bags online and was wondering if I could make them for her girls. Challenge Accepted!
I think they came out so cute. I LOVED seeing them when they were all finished.

Tulle and sewing took over my kitchen table... my poor family has not been able to eat a proper meal around the table without fear of tulle getting onto their plate, mom freaking out if someone spilled or bumping their arm on a sewing machine.

I am so glad that Stacy asked me to make the first bags for her and so thankful for everyone that bought one. I am taking a short break from making them, then will be adding them to my etsy shop.

I have seen a lot of people use these bags for dance bags, scripture bags, bridal bags, and as just a plain little girl purse (or the big girl who is young at heart). If you interested in one let me know!

And if you want to know what else I am working on...
