Easter Basket Ideas

We're just two and half weeks away until Easter.  I love Easter; the meaning of the day, the pastel flowers and dresses, cute bunnies and chicks, and of course sweet treats.  This Easter will still won't be quite the same as before 2020 but it will be a little more of what we're use to.  Church will be open for Easter service that morning and we're planning to see our family for lunch.  Mary-Grace has asked for us to have an egg hunt in our backyard like we did last year so we'll probably do that again in order to avoid crowds. Our little town is having an egg hunt but I'm not sure how many are planning to attend and we're still trying to social distance as much as possible.  What will your Easter look like this year?  Did you start any new traditions last year?  Below I've rounded up some sweet and fun basket and gift ideas.  Making Easter baskets is so much fun to me!  For more ideas,  here's last years roundup.

Benton's 4th Birthday

 Yesterday, the 28th was Benny's fourth birthday.  I can't believe my baby boy is four!  It seems like we just had his last birthday.  Time really is a thief!  We had so much celebrating him.  We picked up doughnuts for breakfast (Krispy Kreme had $5 dozens this week!) and enjoyed a slower morning prepping for a little party.   We invited a few family members over for lunch and cake.  We went back and fourth on whether or not to invite friends but decided to keep it small and just family because of the ongoing virus.  

Now for party details, we served one of Benny's favorites for lunch- hot dogs!  We kept it simple with a veggie tray, dips, hot dogs with toppings, chips, drinks, and of course the cake (lemon flavored requested by Benny).  I reused the blue birthday banner from his 2nd birthday party.  We already had the striped straws and cups leftover from another party so I just picked up napkins and plates from the Dollar Tree.  I had Publix blow up some in his favorite color blue balloons and a big number four balloon.  This was one of the easiest parties we've had yet in terms of prepping but I love how it turned out.  We all had a great time and made some sweet memories with our sweet boy.
