Bippity Boppity Easter is indeed on it's way...
Being that my children are still very young, I am taking advantage of instilling unto them that this is NOT so much a time for presents, but the celebration of nature's rebirth for the year. They receive small treats in their basket, maybe one thing they will enjoy (a toy, book or movie) and some sweets. Nothing big. I would prefer to save their anticipation for commercialism for the bigger events (i.e. birthdays and Christmas lol).
HOWEVER, I come from a family who LOVES to eat and believes no event is such without some kind of grub...and, of course, time with family. So, today, we spent time at Nathan's mother's house. She spent a good amount of time laying out this scheme of how the Easter Bunny had stopped by their house with a LARGE basket of eggs to spread around in areas where the plants are soon to bloom and while he was out, he left each of them a small bag of goodies. She also made them a cake in the shape of a bunny face. Of course, me being the forgetful person I am, failed to snap a picture before the bunny lost his ears to my kids' mouths. Easter egg hunting lasted for a couple of minutes, but I believe the real joy was spending time with the grandparents.
Tomorrow, we will be spending time with my family and, if weather permits, hunting more treats left by the Easter Bunny. Afterwards, I plan to spring into completing my first round of projects....such as repainting my outdoor bistro set, repainting and personalizing my "new-to-me" desk, and rearranging the boys' bedroom (even though I know it will be a disaster no matter what we do).
Being that tomorrow is Easter, there won't be a blog post, but I plan to update on Monday with the completion of at least one of the projects on my list. So for now:
HAPPY EASTER!!
