Our Family's Easter

It was a nice long weekend Easter break for us. Spent with family, it was simply perfect. Here are a few images to recap the weekend. 

We discovered baby bunnies in one of our flower bushes. Three of them were cuddling and keeping warm under the leaves and our landscaping lamps! Super cute! 

Aston with his grandparents. Love that he can spend most of his time with them. They're not getting any younger and I know he treasures all his moments with them. My sister-in-law also flew in from Indiana and he get to play with her! 

After early Easter mass, we bribed him for a series of Easter poses before heading out for brunch. This is how it turned out. Ha - crazy boy! 

There was a good amount of spring rain Sunday afternoon that left a cooler early evening cast. So, we took advantage of it and had post-dinner dessert outside with this funny little man. Check out the random house shirt and fancy jacket he refuses to take off way after Easter mass :) 

I hope you all had a great Easter! 

Spring Fever

We spent a few days in San Antonio/Hill Country and stayed at one of our favorite resorts. We just chilled and hung out to enjoy the last few days of spring break. This is us waiting for the valet to bring up our car to head out and explore downtown San Antonio. Aston being as silly as he can be! 

How was your spring break? 

Weekend Scenes

Last Thursday we flew to Vegas to join my husband who's attending a course out there. Aston's spring break was about to start (officially starts today) so we decided to tag along. Here are a few iPhone shots to share : 

It was a pleasant trip despite the unfamiliar cold and rainy vegas weather. The Bellagio Conservatory is always a must-see everytime we go so we headed out there to admire the spectacular spring flora display ~ it was so gorgeous! We are flying home today, go back to work for a few days and then head out again to end the spring break week!

Scenes from the Weekend

The wonderful weekend started with a casual dinner out with the family Friday night. It was a tad warm and I cant resist sporting my sandals and tunic. I can't believe we had a mild winter and I'm already wearing spring/summer clothes. I guess I should not be complaining and just enjoy it! 

I also started decorating our home for the easter holiday. I chanced upon some $0.99 glitter ornament eggs and started decorating with them. I also had confetti eggs on hand. Those went inside my apothecary jars. For more of my easter home decor, visit my other blog. 

Saturday morning, we started really early and had brunch at City Centre's, Cyclone Anaya's for some yummy  mexican breakfast fare. It was such a gorgeous day and we spent half the day there and we drove off to the Woodlands for more leisurely driving! 

My niece Ailynne celebrated a birthday this past Sunday and we were off to meet them at Coal Vine's for lunch. The ambiance was fantastic as well as the food. We had a grand time gathering with family and relatives! 

Finally, I ended the weekend with some crafting. I am planning to decorate easter basket/buckets for my friends' kids and here are my paraphernalia. More on that later. 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! 

A simple DIY Easter bucket

Inspired by blogger friend Meredith of the sweet T family, I managed to still find the same bucket from hobby lobby and grabbed a set of stickers for our little guy's name and monogram. Fast, easy and for under $5 (thanks to their 50% discounts) ~ I love it!

Spring Fling

I don't know about you but I'm so ready for spring. I am longing to see our azalea bushes bloom and our grass to be as lively green as possible. 

Last Sunday, I set up our table for some bright spring 
and easter accents and I am loving it! 

 

 

 

 

Do you love spring like I do?
