Easter

Easter time is such a great time!    I'm looking forward to sandals and shorts...it's right around the corner!  It's a time when bunnies and colored eggs scattered around the home is completely acceptable, right?   Right.

My love of wreaths is completely satisfied with this adorable Easter egg wreath.   I wish I could keep this up year round.  I really do.   And that yellow chevron pillow cover screams spring to me and it looks lovely with last year's Target dollar spot "hello" pillow and my newly converted place mat pillow:


My sweet niece was over this weekend and that little girl LOVES to see the different decorations every time she comes by.   This tree was one of her favorites: 


She's four years old so you can imagine her excitement when she spotted the colored eggs.   They look really delicate but they are actually plastic so when she found out she could handle them (without getting yelled at) she was in heaven!   They kept her entertained for some time.    At one point she hid the eggs behind the pillows, under the couch, in my computer bag, etc.   Yesterday I found an egg in my tote.



Love.


I meant it when I said there are bunnies and colored eggs scattered around...


Pillows are my jam too.   



And this little snake plants has been making the rounds in the house.   It's been in the hall, the kitchen and now it sits in my reading corner in the living room.   Oh yeah, and there's a bunny there too.



And here too.   And remember that calendar I got a Christmastime at the Target dollar spot?  Turns out Sweetheart really likes keeping the date current.   It's more his OCD that kicks in when he walks by it but still.   


My decor ended up being so much lighter than previous years.  Which I'm not complaining about...I kind of like it.

And in true lazy-girl fashion, I tossed garland atop the mirror and called it good.   



We are mid way through the lenten season and I would be remiss to not mention that Easter is more to me than spring and colored eggs.  Easter is special to me for religious reasons:  the sacrifice, the reflection and the renewal.   Also because of the family traditions that are built around lent that are so meaningful to me.  It truly makes my soul happy.     

Happy Easter!
