Good morning! Thank you for all of the Happy Easter wishes. I hope you and your family had a wonderful celebration, too. We had a good week off of school and I had extra time to clean out the gardens and plant flowers.
I made a double batch of hot cross buns on Friday. Thankfully, the neighborhood kids helped eat them.
We went to a fun Easter party on Saturday and then stayed up late cooking, baking, and putting baskets together.
It was cold and rainy, but we still dressed up in our spring outfits for church.
Daisy had fun raiding the Easter baskets while we were gone. She especially liked the bubble gum and peeps. Then, she dug in the muddy sandbox. Twice.
We had a delicious ham dinner with Phillip's family and a friend from church. I won't have to cook for a week!
Now it's time to start a new week and get back into our routines. How was your weekend?
It sounds like you had a beautiful day... happy Easter!!
ReplyDeleteHI Kelli! I sure missed you this week but I am glad that you enjoyed your spring break.
ReplyDeleteOur Easter was nice. I hosted a wonderful Easter party Saturday for my granddaughters and their friends....nine kids and ten adults.
Hope you and the rest of the Winn family have a blessed week. Love, Debbi

ReplyDeleteLooks like yall had a great Easter. Those buns look wonderful! If I lived in your neighborhood I would have run all the kids off & ate those things by myself! Cant get over how much your babies have grown! I had to work so we hunted eggs with Little Package thursday & friday.
ReplyDeleteYour meal looks fabulous, and I love the hedgehogs in your planter.
ReplyDeleteThe kids and I enjoyed the annual sunrise service outdoors at church yesterday morning, and it was the nicest weather we had all day. By noon it was cold and windy. So the bbq at my parents was eaten inside. But we all enjoyed ourselves!
Glad you had such a wonderful weekend!
Weekend here was full of yummy treats too :)

What a wonderful, Easter celebration you and your family had. :) I was fortunate enough to be able to fly home and be with mine. It was so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! Glad you had such a lovely day! :) Everything looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDo you mind sharing your hot cross buns recipe? I have a certain taste in mind that I remember from a bakery where I grew up in Michigan and I keep hoping I'll find a similar recipe. It sure was an untypical Easter for Dallas! Kinda gloomy and chilly until late in the day.
ReplyDeleteHope you are refreshed after your break. Glad you're back!!
ReplyDeleteYour dinner table looked delicious!
ReplyDeleteThe children were darling!
The Dog...looked apologetic..
and I just loved those hedgehogs peeking out from the flowerpot! :)
He is Risen!
