Easter Decorating & Baskets

As with every holiday we have to decorate so of course we put out all of our bunny and egg decorations for Easter.
It should just be mandatory when you have little kids in the house just because it makes it fun for them.
Kayla and Brooklyn enjoy all the decorations which makes it well worth it.



I don't have nearly as much Easter decor as I do for Halloween/Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Spring/Easter to me is mostly being able to plant flowers so I guess I would rather spend the money on items for our backyard.
 

Although I did have to buy these cute ornaments from Pier 1 this year for our tree.
The eggs that are hanging from the tree came in a pack of 6 for $2.50 from Target.


The rest of our Easter decorations I have picked up throughtout the years here and there.



Just cute little things that are placed all around the house.




Here is also a sneak peak at what the girl's Easter Baskets look like all filled with their goodies.
Yes, I already have them put together because I had to make sure it all fit :)


Of course they are getting bathing suits, 2 each this year because there were too many cute ones I couldn't resist!
A cute little beach cover up
Books,
Max & Ruby bunnies
Tangled DVD
Imagination Movers CD
 (they both love to dance around to music in Kayla's room)
Jump Rope
boats for the pool or beach
These baskets are stuffed this year, mostly with books!
I found a lot of little things from the Dollar Store and the dollar bins at Target.  I think they are getting more than enough this Easter not even considering what they will get from their Grandparents!
Is everyone else ready for Easter?

Love that Easter tree!! Your moss monogram is really pretty. :) Love the baskets. My hubs made me cut way back on buying for the Easter baskets...he said I went overboard last year. :s

Hi Shannon! Thanks for coming by my blog today. I am your newest follower! Your girls are beautiful and I think we think the same way. All 3 of my girls baskets look similar...or shall I say will look similar. As I type this, I should be out purchasing a few more things! Oh well!
