I loooove Easter…extra, extra long-weekend, lots of chocolate, sunny days, everyone home to chill out together.
Our Easter weekend has looked a little like this so far:
Hunting for little eggs left by Easter Bunny (he is rather unpredictable in this family…appearing late in the morning while the kids are getting dressed in their bedroom, after dinner while they are in the bath…always at an appropriate time to deliver his chocolate and non-chocolate gifts ensuring that adequate breakfast has been eaten before devouring the chocolate 😉 )
Homemade hot cross buns…oh my, these were insanely delicious. So good that we had to share a few with our neighbours to stop us from gulping them all down. Will definitely be making these all year ’round!
Non-chocolate Easter surprises…new PJs made using my Slumber Party Jammies pattern. Cute, cute, cute! The kids love them and I have decided that I REALLY need a pair in my size 😉
ALMOST finishing the deck! And it is looking great…Jaron has been spending every spare moment on outside jobs around the house for the last 4 months, will be so good when they are all done!
Reading special Easter stories that belonged to me (although Carli will debate that it is HER book!) when I was a little girl. The kids love this one, I wish we had kept more books from when we were little.
As well as lots of house cleaning, too many late nights, watching Ty play his first footy game for the season, a big breakfast to farewell Cade and Paul who are both leaving on their missions this week, boating, sewing, waiting for a new baby boy to make his arrival…and who knows what the rest of the weekend will bring? Jaron doesn’t have to go back to work until Wednesday – yippee!!
