Josie has been enjoying serving me tea and buns.
As you can imagine, I've had a lot of time to surf a few of my favorite sites for Easter ideas this week.Carrot napkins are quite popular this Easter.
This one found at Busy Bees Kids crafts uses orange construction paper with a green napkin tucked inside as the stem.
Family Fun has a different variation that uses orange tissue paper, green stemware and green pipe cleaners. My simple Josie-friendly variation uses two different types of napkins with a bit of scotch tape to keep the orange napkins in a cone/carrot shape. By the way, don't you love the Easter table cloth? I've had it since we were first married nearly 20 years ago. 
Chocolate dipped marshmallow peeps were a favorite Easter treat last year and we made them again this week. They are super easy and totally kid-friendly.
Melt chocolate, dip the peeps bottom side down into chocolate, press the chocolate side into cookie sprinkles and set on parchment paper to dry.
YUMMY!
My knee scooter has made me a very happy and productive momma. By the way, Josie's other loose tooth came out with alittle help from the big sister. The tooth fairy has been extra busy this week.
Thanks for hopping in.
Have yourself a happy Thursday!

I am so happy the package arrived in time and have found themselves in a special play kitchen. Love all of these carrot and peep ideas, I think I will incorporate them this weekend. Happy Easter, glad you are feeling mobile on your new wheels.
Mmmmm!! Im totally addicted to Peeps. And the sprinkles just set them over the top.
So glad to hear the the knee scooter is helping you stay mobile. Sometimes there's nothing more sprit lifting than being able to move around at your leisure.
I've gotta try the easter peeps-you can't go wrong with cute and yummy! Glad you're able to get around more with your scooter. The hot cross buns are so cute-who thinks of all these ideas?
What a fun way to "dress up" the peeps! The hot cross buns your friend made are very sweet.
Yummy is right! And those hot cross buns are too cute, just like your girls. Happy Easter.
Good morning...I wish I could feast on a few of those fresh peeps. Two teeth in one week! Good grief. Those hot cross buns are darling. That basket is the perfect holder for your camera...and a few peeps. Smiles...Renee
Lots of cute ideas here Kim!
Now you must teach those little girls to sing, "Hot Cross Buns! Hot Cross Buns! One a penny, two a penny. Hot Cross Buns!" Cute ideas for table decor!

I can see why you fell in love with those felt hot cross buns. They are quite adorable.
Adorable buns (in the non-creepiest way possible!)!
I really need to start making some cute felt food!
Such cute napkins!
Looks like your girls had so much fun!
Hooray for being able to get around more!

What a sweet post. I love how much the kids love this special Easter season. AND I love that little gap-toothed smile-it makes ME smile! xo Diana
Hi Kim,

Have a blessed Easter.

Such cute pictures! I'm glad the scooter is giving you some more mobility. Still sending healing vibes along to you for a speedy total recovery.
Great finds! Hope you have a fun and relaxing weekend!
Kim,
Everything looks so yummy!
Glad to see and hear that you are getting around!! How the pain gets better for you soon!
Joe had his appt. with the Foot Dr. for removal of his plantar warts.
He will be off 6-8 weeks rather then 203 as originally expected.He has to have both feet done at once and will need to use a walker. I am going to have to keep him busy big time or he will be driving me up a tree! LOL!!
Wishing you and yours a very Happy Easter!!
Hugs,
Deb
Just catching up on your posts after a busy week here. Love the napkin ideas-I think I will use those for our Easter table tomorrow. I also have a love of felt food-all it takes is a little patience and some careful hand sewing on my part!
Peeps with chocolate and sprinkles! What a fun idea!
Blessings,
Janet
How cute! The girls are just adorable! Did they make a special one for you?
