milehighdisneymom: Easter Play Date

Now that I have a computer and have Internet back on in the house, I am hoping to be writing many blogs about anything and everything. People who know me, know I have a lot of pictures and a lot to say. Plus with me having a tiny obsession with Pinterest, OK maybe a huge obsession with Pinterest, I have pinned so many things, and then go onto people's blogs and it makes me want to write about everything. So I'm in the process of making a schedule for my blogs. I keep getting so many great ideas from other people. I'm thinking of maybe doing a blog Monday thru Friday. And have each day set to be about something different. Like Monday's will be about recipes, Tuesday's be about crafts, Wednesday's be about Taylor, and so on. I am hoping to start next Monday. So if you have any great ideas, I'm all ears!

Anyways, today I wanted to share with everyone what Taylor and I did this morning with our friends. Traci and Luci, Kara and Iyla, Aimee and Dexter, and Lo and Rylan came over for a couple of hours this morning, and we had an Easter theme play date. I didn't give myself enough time to make the Easter theme cookies, that I found on Pinterest of course, but I did make egg salad sandwiches with carrots and bunny fruity snacks for lunch. And also Bunny Bait, which I found on Pinterest, and it was delicious. You can find the recipe here. The only problem with the Bunny Bait is that, the ladies didn't eat enough of it, so now I have a whole bowl staring at me, saying "EAT ME".

Doesn't it look delicous? Not quite as good as the one I found on Pinterest. But still delicous.

The crafts for the day involved dying Easter eggs, and then painting foam Easter eggs. All you need is construction paper cut into large Easter eggs or pre cut foam Easter Eggs, which I got at the $1 store. Oh my gosh have I told you how much I love the $1 store, especially for crafts for Taylor. I can spend a lot of money there. Then you need Washable Tempura paint, paper plates, and shaving cream. All you do is put shaving cream on the paper plate, spread it out with a knife, add a drop of each color of the paint into the shaving cream, then using the knife, swirl around the paint and shaving cream to make it look tie die. Then just put the foam Easter egg on top of the plate and press down. It is a very fun project, but a very messy project as well. I would suggest aprons, towels, blankets, or whatever else to keep the floor, table, and your child from getting all messy. We all just took off the girls clothes and let them at it. Poor Skyler though (Traci's dog). Luci decided to put the paint that was on her hand on Skyler's back.

And here are a few pics of everyone dying Easter eggs.

We had such a great time with all our friends. And I love having themed play dates. I need to win the Powerball or something, so I don't have to work anymore, and I can just stay home with Taylor all day doing play dates, blogging, crafts, and whatever else we feel like. And now I can actually say that I have done a few things that I have pinned on Pinterest. Haha! I'll end with a few more pics of our great day today.
