EASTER'S ON ITS WAY

Easter has always been a huge deal in our family. Our family always gathers for a lovely brunch or dinner and no matter how old we get, there is an egg hunt and Easter basket waiting for us! Yes, I am pushing thirty years old and I still love a good Easter egg hunt with my siblings. We are all super competitive so that makes it even more fun and exciting.

Easter is my Mom's favorite holiday! She loves Spring time so much! She had always made this holiday so special for my siblings and I. Quite a few years ago (before Parker and I were even married) my Grandma and I were shopping in a baby store and I stumble upon a Peter Cotton Tail baby book that sings the song as you turn the pages. I knew in that moment that was how I wanted to tell my Mom that I was pregnant someday! I bought the book and kept it in a very safe place for years.

Fast forward to August 2015 when I found out we were expecting.... I made my Mom an Easter basket (yep in August) that included the Peter Cotton Tail book and a Petter Cotton Tail baby rattle in it. I handed her the basket and said "we made you something".....she saw it and thought it was just a sweet Easter basket that I had made her randomly..... until I said " we made you a grand baby"!!!!!! YAY!!

My Mom has talked about how excited she has been to have an Easter egg hunt for Baby B on their property since before he was even born! We are SO excited for Sunday! Hoping it does not rain...I am doing the "Don't rain dance"!! My parents have the most gorgeous property and it will be totally perfect for an awesome family gathering!!

I have been so stoked to put together Bennan's basket! I can't wait to see his face on Easter morning! I thought it would be fun to share with you some of the goodies that will be in his basket.

B loves these little yummy snacks & I normally buy them at target.

What child wouldn't love to fly a kite? This darling pocket kite was purchased at one of my favorite boutiques called SPIN located in Roseville! They have the most darling and unique gifts!

Little Bunny Foo Foo!

We are planning on exploring a lot this summer so this book is very fitting. I found this gem at SPIN. They have an awesome kids section.

Pouches are always awesome for when we are on the go.

Bennan is super into bubbles!

Target dollar section ROCKS!! This little wooden tool set is too cute.

TJ MAXX had super cute Easter baskets this year.

TA-DA! Bennan's first Easter basket!
