Our FUN Easter Recap!

Here are a few pictures from our very fun, chocolate filled weekend!

( I made cookies, we got tulips from Mike's mom, we made shaker eggs, Mike got a huge STACHE of candy from the Easter bunny, the cutest highchair cover from my parents and my sweet bunny)

Good Friday we went next door!

 Saturday we went to my Grams

And Sunday we stayed at home and had our own Easter morning

(Adalyn checking out the chair cover, opening her gift, reading with daddy, liking her new toy, her first Easter bib, putting EVERYTHING in her mouth!)

It was a great Easter and a great first Easter for Adalyn. I couldn't not show you her Easter dresses....how sweet!!!

I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday!

Adalyn's Easter Basket!

I was excited to buy things for Adalyn's Easter basket waaaay before Easter! I think this was all bought before February and has been sitting in a bag until I bought the basket a couple weeks ago!  Here is what I got the little miss for Easter:

You can't see everything in the basket so here are the details!

I got her some wood teethers because she is starting I think! She is drooling, putting everything in her mouth and has rosey cheeks! I might be wrong...but she will like chewing on them either way!

I love it all!  I hope she does too! She is one lucky girl! I can't wait to give it to her this weekend!

Another Easter Onesie!

 I was walking in the drugstore when I came across these gold eggs!

 You know I am loving everything gold right now...so I picked them up. Then I had an idea! A gold Easter egg onesie!!!!!! I used the freezer paper stencil method and went to town.

I used a punch to make the little circles for the middle of the egg

and painted away!

here is the end result...

(I always love peeling away the paper!)

And here is the little miss in it!

( I definitely painted the other set of bunny ears I had gold! And an old bow too!)

What do you think?! I think it turned out pretty darn good! I am loving everything gold right now...gah...I just want to paint every onesie she has...hahahahah

Adalyn's Easter Onesie!

Making holiday onesies is becoming a tradition over here with Amanda and I! We love crafting and setting up little photoshoots! Here is what we made for the babes for Easter!!!

Here is B's:

Here is Addy's:

And here they are together....how cute!?

 (The eggs were from Walmart!)

I am kind of sad there are not any holidays for a while....Is the next big one Thanksgiving!? We might have to do something for Canada Day so we don't have to wait so long! :)

My Easter Mantle

Hey guys! I know I haven't been posting my usual posting schedule...but it has been a little crazy around here..Anyway, I doubt I will be posting regularly for a while! But I will keep you guys posted for sure!

How was your Easter weekend? Mine was busy, but wonderful as always! I just remembered I never shared my Easter mantle with you!!

I knew I wanted an egg banner type thing...I bought 2 strands of eggs at the dollarstore...... 

 

 They were $1.00 a strand

and as you can tell by the top of the mantle I wanted eggs, bunnies and birds!

I am not a huge fan of rainbow.....I know Easter is supposed to be full of colour...but I didn't like all the colours! So....I bet you can guess what I did...I painted it! (and glittered too!)

  white, green and gold. 

I also painted and glittered the blue eggs that were in the second picture on the mantle.

For the pillow I really cheated and just wrapped it in green and blue floral vintage fabric

Those were the bunnies I painted white last year...

So, what do you think?! This was my first Easter mantle...if you can believe it! I think it turned out pretty well!

I hope you all had a great Easter weekend!
