There is so much to catch up with on here! It has been a busy few weeks. I used to feel guilty when I’d go even a week without posting, but between my days with the little monkey and work, my spare time is usually spent trying to catch up on sleep or chores.
Every year, we have a little Easter gathering, which used to be so much more adult focused (with a beer hunt in the mix), but I have to say that there was a very clear shift this year with only a few people decorating beers and a whole lot more eggs and items for the kid hunt and more people focusing on baking and preparing really beautiful foods for the brunch spread.
My brother and Nancy did a really fine job at decorating though and I have to give them props on here so their beer decor can live on!
Yes, this is indeed a Mr. T beer!
One of several garden gnome beers they made!
And, the adult hunt was still a hit, but, you can’t beat this kind of cuteness:
This was the Little Monkey’s first Easter, so we dressed him in dapper spring colors!
The Little Monkey loves his uncle Ster!
It was such a great day and the weather cooperated too! I don’t recall the last Easter when we were able to do this:
Showing off my dirty feet...
Spring is here and all we can think about is gardening, hiking, bike riding, fishing, strolling, lounging…on that note, I am off to enjoy more of this sunny day we are having!
Well my sweater made it to the party! Miss you guys sooo much! Keep looking out for you on Skype, we will catch up soon. The party looked awesome!
I am so sad I was too sick to come. I am glad Max and Josh were able to be there. I heard it was cuteness overload. Just did some fishing today and was the only one of the family to catch one. I hope you all get some fun times in!
