Easter 2012...

I seriously love Easter. I love the spring flowers, and the taste of sunshine. It is such a great time to celebrate the resurrection of Christ. This year we taught the 6-7 year olds in primary about the resurrection of Christ, and they were really fascinated by the whole giant stone that covered to tomb.

We celebrated an Easter with my family on Saturday with a yummy breakfast, and a egg hunt. :) I forgot to bring my camera, but I did take pictures with my brother's camera. I am waiting for him to send them to me so I can post them. :)

But we also celebrated at our home a little bit too.

 I love to color eggs. I love to see what people think of.

 Kristi and Jake both were very creative. We had an eyeball egg, a grenade egg, a stop and go egg, and Kristi broke out the glitter... all super festive.

 I love masking out letters!

 Camie made Cruz a unicorn egg with glitter as requested. ;)

 All in all turning these little white eggs in to colorful creations turned out to be a success.

 Little Easter treats for our friends!

 We didn't have baskets this year, we had bags.

 Since Cruz and I aren't eating candy and treats, I had to get creative with the stuff to go in his Easter bag. It was a challenge to think of what small thing to put inside. I came up with socks and chapsticks. LOL. Oh, and to help fill up the bad... a blue power aid. He liked it.

 We took my parents some festive easter bags as well. We got creative with the note... and matched it with some of the treats that were inside.

 I finally found a table for our hallway! I plan to display holiday decor and such there.

It's a great place for my subway art.
I plan to have a different subway art for each month.
Get yours here!

hope you had a happy easter!

April Subway Art { F R E E D O W N L O A D }

How, is it that APRIL is just around the corner? Time is flying by. :)
I love springtime. I love seeing all the flowers pop out, especially in my parent's yard. They have a zillion. And they are always so pretty.

It was tricky to pick words for the April Subway art. There are already so many spring subway art out there, and I don't want to just redo them. So, I tried to mix the fun, spring and Easter things in with some more spiritual words. Which is kind of harder than you may think.

Here is the SUBWAY art for APRIL.

{ available in 2 colors: Vintage and Brights }

I really can't decide which to print out!

How about you?

easter 2011

Easter is always such a great holiday. I love everything about it. I love thinking about the blessings of my Savior Jesus Christ. I love that spring is in the air. I love all the cute kids at church in their Easter outfits. I love eggs! I love being with friends and family. What is there not to LOVE!

Cruz and I started Easter morning with a yummy breakfast. Scrambled egg omelet. And yummy warm french bread.

I made Cruz a little easter surprise.

I wrote a love note. 

He was happy. When I brought it out to him the first thing he said was, awe... but I didn't get you anything.

I said, "I made one for me too!" 

(Easter baskets are kinda American... and so I guessed he wouldn't think about it.)

We also took one of these over to my Mom and Dad for Easter. My Dad was at church, but my Mom was home... since she is sick. She was so surprised! She loved it. It was actually the best part of Easter. 

We planned a little Easter dinner with our friends, and served up pulled pork sandwiches, with garlic green beans and almonds.  We also had....

Strawberry spinach salad, and deviled eggs.

It was my first time to MAKE deviled eggs. Turned out pretty good. Not as good as my Mom's, that we had the night before... but still pretty good. ;)

We made these little bundle of treats for our guests.

We had a blast playing games!

and coloring eggs.

I am always amazed at the creative people out there.

good times!

We hope that you all had a fantastic Easter and that it was very festive.

This pic is almost as silly as the one from last years Easter's post....see here.... at the very end. 

happy easter
