Easter Outfit ~ Happy Day!

 This morning was a lot of fun. What with waking up to the Easter baskets, eating raspberry pancakes, hunting for eggs. And, oh yeah, dressing up my daughter in her new outfit!! hehe I truly enjoyed this part. I was thrilled to see that The Audrey Cape and Circle Skirt fit. (whew!)

 Heading out.

I had visions of her twirling around in the grass WITHOUT her winter coat, but, unfortunately,

 it was freezing out this morning. Never mind the icy cold wind on top of the low 40s temperature.

 But overall, a fun morning. The kids didn't mind about the weather. They just wanted candy!!

Glad the little girl's outfit was made of wool! :)

I'm also entering this outfit into Project Run and Play's Week 1 sewing contest where you had to remix Dana's Circle Skirt. Since this outfit essentially has two circle skirts in it (the cape is a skirt after all), I thought it might have a shot. Wish me luck!

Another Easter Hair Clip and a Pin

I was up late last night thinking it'd be fun to surprise my kids with a little gift this morning at breakfast. I'm afraid these might look extremely homemade (nodding, why yes they do), but if you look at them from a distance, and maybe squint a little, they look terribly good. Oh, but the kids really liked them, and that's what matters most.

 A peeps-inspired hair clip for my daughter.

 And a basket filled with peeps for my son. No, not a hair clip, but a pin. He was excited to wear it to pre-school this morning. Apparently, his teacher made him get up and talk about it during circle (oops). When I asked my son what he said about it, all I got was, "I don't know" and a little embarrassed shiftiness. (Sorry, kid.)

 Super chilly this morning, but I liked seeing the peeps peaking out of her hood. Hi there!

Linking up with Tea Rose Home today. More of my Easter hair clips here.

Easter Hair Clips

I got started on some Easter hair clips the other night and here are the results.

Got this adorable bunny idea here (lots more cute ones there too.)

And the duck idea here (and more cute ones here as well).

The tulip and the egg are my own ideas. Not sure if I'm lovin' the egg so much.

Anyway, these were all going to someone else, but when my daughter saw the bunny, she got so excited. I stuck it in her hair and snapped a picture. I know I will have to make one for her next.
