I love how you did so much baking with your 5-yr old. I can understand her being too excited to go to sleep.

I'm so delighted to be able to "watch" her grow and see your creative influence bloom. <br /><br />Those Cheese & Cracker Chicks are just soooo adorable. I bet they would be perfect for a May Day celebration too:) <br /><br />I think it is so adorable that your father took charge of the Easter Egg hunt coordinating colors and hiding in elusive places. It sounds like your family had a wonderful Easter!<br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing, Johanna...~~louise~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07335196139849995706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-85101106032357683092014-04-22T20:58:36.348+10:002014-04-22T20:58:36.348+10:00Those painted easter eggs are so cute!
