Easter 2012.

Yesterday we celebrated Easter. We had a nice family dinner at our place with my mum and dad, uncle and grandparents. My sister and brother and their families were away camping, so we will celebrate Orthodox Easter with them next weekend.

We enjoyed a delicious baked dinner made by me and a scrumptious apple pie made by my nan. 

I put together a small chocolate and candy table for the kids for Easter. I chose a pastel colour theme and was lucky enough to find some fabulous goodies for the table.

The cute little rabbits I purchased from Little Big Company. The provided a nice change to the back of the table in place of a cake, which I usually use as the centrepiece of my tables. 

 The pretty glittery egg decorations I purchased at Target and set the table off nicely.

The pastel M&M's, speckled M&M eggs, Reese peanut butter cups, mini Hershey chocolates, Hershey kisses and marshmallow peeps were all purchased from Affair to Remember. The Easter printables were designed by Anders Ruff, and were the perfect colour palette.

I love the Easter holiday break as it a great chance to relax and spend time with family. I hope you all enjoyed Easter and also enjoyed reading about our celebrations.

We celebrated Oliver's birthday last week too, so I will be back later in the week with some photo's from his party and most importantly the cake!!!

Enjoy the week.

 

Happy Easter!

Wishing all of my fellow bloggers and their families a very happy easter. Enjoy the time with your loved ones, hope the easter bunny is good to you all :)

Easter Vanilla Sugar Cookies.

Today I baked some easter treats, vanilla sugar cookies for my niece's who will be away for Easter, so not joining us for dinner on Easter Sunday.

Cute little Easter bunnies and chickens were the cutters I chose.

Pink and yellow seemed to be a good colour choice, prettied up with cute little sugar flowers and fluffy bunny tails.

Yesterday Lachlan and I spent most of the day making paper chains, Easter banners and Easter colouring in pictures to decorate our house in readiness for the Easter weekend. I purchased the gorgeous Easter printables set from Style Me Gorgeous. 

 

The printable set also included cute chocolate wrappers to match. I put together this little gift for Lachlan's teacher.

Enjoy the days leading up to Easter, I will be making a special Easter themed cake for our family, so will be back with some details on this along with a wedding cake and birthday cake for Easter Saturday!
