Easter Take Two

**Yeah it’s picture heavy again…**

Easter morning started off with a visit from Mr. Easter Bunny.

It was hilarious because it was sitting on the love seat in the living room, she made mention about it and we asked her who it was for and she said, “I dunno.”  So I told her it was for me.  Then she said it was purple so I told her it was really for me, she disagreed with me then.

Rabbit marshmallows

Big chocolate bunny.

A chocolate bunny lollipop.

All her loot

Then she tried to put it back in the basket.

Her next comment was, “What do I do with it now.”  She asked that because of the chocolate and we don’t want rodents so we keep it all in the kitchen, but I smarted off, “You put it in your mouth.”  And this is what I got.

Then we got up, while hubby and Tbug got dressed I whipped up some of my favorite icing for the cake so I could decorate it when we got to my parents house and then I got dressed and we ran out the door to church.

After church we went to my parents house and I iced the cake and then Tbug put the halved Reeces Mini’s around the top.

Mom wanted my Red Lobster Biscuit recipe, but I’d stumbled across a different one so we decided to try it.  Um… I think we’ll stick to the original, but they weren’t…. bad…..

The finished cake.

My mother-in-law brought this yummy goodie!

And Grandma brought Spinach Artichoke Dip which was to die for!

I told her I want the recipe.  If she remembers to get it to me, I’ll be sure to share.

Mom’s Chinese Cabbage Salad.

The yummy ham.  And no I didn’t move, that’s steam you see coming off it.

Mom wanted “fancy” linen, aka paper towels so hubby decided to be a smart a$$ and he folded them all fancy.

Mom’s “good” dishes were in the dishwasher, she’s like do you mind if we use the every day dishes.  Heck none of us cared one bit as long as we got to eat :).

This wonderful Potato casserole.

The finished biscuits.  We’ll still stick to the original recipe!

This cake was to die for.  It was a chocolate cake with chocolate chips, peanut butter icing between the layers and my butter cream on the outside.  Then Reece’s mini’s around the top.

And I’m not a huge chocolate and peanut butter together kinda gal.

Then we went to Sunday night dinner.  Hubs walked into Pokey & Earl’s with one of our confetti eggs and broke it right over Earl’s head. 

Then T came in and we tried to get him to take one and go throw it at one of the kids, but for some reason he wouldn’t do it.

So we took them all outside and hollered and the kids came a running.

Hubs demonstrated over Z’s head.

The kids absolutely LOVED them.

Although they went a lot faster than it took to make them…

That’s for sure!

Then they went back to playing but the girls especially walked around with confetti in their hair all night.  It was great.
