Egg Shells

Today, while I was busy getting things ready for Easter tomorrow, I sat Miss A down with some eggs shells and glue and she made some pretty flowers. . .

More eggs. . . and cupcakes

Last night we started making these eggs. The day before when decorating eggs it was" Be careful, they will crack if you drop them." Last night it was "Drop them, crack them, have at them!" The kids had a blast! And the results - stunning!

I saw a link for these jelly donut cupcakes at Just Becuse I Am Me. They sounded yummy so I had to try them. Remember I am baking challenged. Something ALWAYS happens. Well this time my hand mixer broke right in the middle of mixing. So I mixed the rest by hand. I am not sure if they turned out the way they are suppose to but they were yummy the way the came out :)

A day of decorating. . .

Today we finished decorating cookies. . .

we used candy corn for our duck bills.

and mini marshmallows for our bunny tails (I cut marshmallows in half)

We also decorated our eggs

Projects to do. . .

Yesterday we kept busy by making egg garland out of coffee filters. We cut the shape of and egg, then colored them. . . sprayed them with water and let them dry. . .

then we hung them up as garland.

We also made Easter bunny masks. . .although this bunny was acting more like a monster or dinosaur. ( Can you see all that nasty snow out the window)

Easter Parade/Party

Today is Miss A's Easter Parade and Party at school. There was suppose to be an outdoor parade of bunnies singing, but it is threatening snow(yes snow, after I was just saying it is finally Spring, we might even break the snow record for the snowiest winter) so they moved the grand events indoors. Miss A was the leader today and got to bring in a snack so we baked cookies. . .

She also took in Easter party snack for everyone. . .

She doesn't go back to school until next Wednesday. Boy it will be a LONG week. We will have to fill it with some projects to do. . .
