Easter Snapshots

I headed up North to Minnesota for Easter. I had a very BUSY, but GRAND time while in the frozen tundra.
I did get around to dipping the Peeps in chocolate. Everyone loved how they turned out!
I helped my mother get everything in order for Easter brunch.
I also made our family's lamb, coconut cake. I used vanilla sugar in the butter cream icing and oh my goodness, it was the best frosting I had ever tasted. Simply divine!
Our Easter table was set....all we were missing here were the guests!
Winston was very excited about Easter. I think his favorite part was all the treats.
Treats were EVERYWHERE!
You are never too old for an Easter basket.
I think many of you know how much my mother and I love Peter Rabbit so of course most of the Peter Rabbit china was out for Easter.
My mother also found these darling Peter Rabbit goody bags which we filled with treats for all the guests.
Last, but certainly not least....more sweets! I loved the festive items Lunds had. I may or may not have bought the little bunny cakes for my enjoyment.
I hope you had a blessed and wonderful Easter!
