Easter Eggs and Finishing Touches . . .





Megan and Gracie (her bestie) colored eggs the other day.   There are sooooo many different coloring techniques and kits to choose from now.  I personally like the good old fashioned PAAS egg dying kit which, by the way, is great for dying ribbon too.  : )  We opted instead for a glitter egg kit and another one with rub-on transfers which is where all of the silly faces that you see are from.  We also opted out of the glitter.  Too much of a mess!! 



Those transfers can be a bit of a pain to clean up as well but they are certainly a lot easier to clean up than glitter!!






 A few Easter touches that I added this week . . .



Salt and pepper shakers.


My Easter mantle.






My mother in law made this for me in ceramics years ago.  It used to have candy eyes but they fell off.  It looks so real that you almost want to take a bite.  : )


Guess who finally got a haircut??  And he even got an Easter bandana too.  : )

This little guy has lost part of his beak and one of his wings and his eyes look a little cock-eyed.  He's still adorable though.  I call him my "special" chicken.  : )


Happy Easter if you celebrate!!  A few friends and some family will be coming here tomorrow.  I'll be making a roast pork and a roast beef.  Also, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, red mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, gravy and applesauce.  Now my mouth is watering.

Coloring Eggs . . .

 This year, Meggie was able to color her own Easter eggs for the first time.  Being the little artist that she is, she had lots of fun!!

 We had our "adopted" Fresh Air Fund son, Jakhai, with us for part of the Easter break from school.  We try to get the boys together as often as possible other then during the summer when he comes as part of the Fresh Air Fund group.  I can't tell you enough how much we love Jakhai and his wonderful family!!  : )

 I hope everyone had a very happy and blessed Easter.  We had a wonderful day here with family.  Now it's back to school and work and all of those other doses of reality.  : )


Many blessings for a happy day ~ Wendy
