Easter recap

So what does an organic, whole grain, sprouted bread, veggie lovin' mamma get for her boys on Easter? Please, give me credit, I'm not THAT bad. I get them CANDY, and lots of it. And we made cupcakes with grass and eggs to boot! Check 'em out...are they not the cutest? Cooper did all the grass himself, then Duncan helped with the eggs. Then Easter morning, when Cooper found the peeps in his basket, he insisted that he take them and put them on the eggs to "stay warm" so they could "hatch". (Some of you may remember this drill from last year, but I swear he did this again with no prompting or reminder from us.) By the way; "a watched peep never hatches".
Then there was just the fun of the baskets. Opening all the plastic baseball "eggs" to see what each one had inside. Comparing, marveling, eating, trading...
Then we were off to Ma Jane and Pop's for dinner. I ate SO much, I never ate another bite the rest of the day. The coconut cream pie from Tony's was to die for!
After dinner I pulled up my blog and showed it to Nana (Jane's 99 year old mother), and Connie (Barb's slightly Alzheimer's impaired mother), and tried to explain to them what a Blog was...wow, try THAT some time.
We headed home for nappy's, I watched the movie Hitch (hysterical by the way), finished up laundry and then started printing some of these great photos for scrapbooking later. I'm feeling my creative juices flowing and think I may need a "mental health scrapbooking day" soon.
Hope all of you had an equally lovely day. And oh, happy COLD Monday.
