Easter blogging, months after April.


It's that time of the year again. 
Easter. 
What? Your Easter doesn't include a brutal easter egg hunt that involves large amounts of ammo, grandkids, great grandkids and usually one or two casualties?  



That's just absurd. 



This is a serious affair.  All the cousins nearby come.


Starting Line. 












Shooting at the kids and pregnant people give you more points and self esteem. 



The eldest of the grandchildren won the illustrious egg, filled with money and more self esteem. 




Checking out our bounty.


There were some of us who lost...by a lot, mainly because eggs were stolen by little children or we didn't understand the riddle. 







My lovely family.











Egg rollin contest.








Seeing who can throw the egg the farthest in the street. 


As always.  Good Times. 



Thanks Auntie Mitsie and Happy Short Retirement!

While waiting for little brother make his debut. . .


I sat.  I sat a lot.  Probably more than I care to really share.  But at least I was productive this time.  I didn't really want Aiko to be eating a ton of sweets, so I thought I'd make her something instead.  I found this adorable bunny pattern (that I bought here) and set to work. It was super easy!  So, I made a few, plus little brother needed one.  (I actually stitched Orion's name on the back of his...before he was born, basically setting in stone that his name would be Orion. Luckily, we used that name.)


I'm afraid that these are the cutest/coolest/Asian style Easter eggs I have ever seen.  I went to a few different Target stores to find them.  Yes, there was a pack of like 30 for the same price, but do you see the ears?  The faces? It was a match made in Asian heaven I tell you.  Plus, I mean, they totally matched my bunnies above and below. 


Yes, these are adorable.  Yes, I purchased a pattern here.  Yes, I'm still in love with them.  Yes, I tried to put Orion in his to take a picture, but he was too big and only 4 days old. 


Sigh, these really are one of my favorite thing I've crocheted.


Aiko actually played with her bunny before Easter even came around, I mean, I was ready for Easter like a month in advance.  But they sat as a lovely April decoration nonetheless.
