food, crochet, merriment
Such a lovely thing–a birthday. Honestly, I love coming to anyone’s birthday because we always have fun just the same. We just love being together. There’s always great food, lovely conversation, throwing footballs, opening presents, eating cake and sooo much laughter.
See for yourself.
So, here we have little Lyla helping me put away all the Easter decorations. Perhaps we both need a little break.
Sheesh.
Some people like to multitask. You know…doing several things at once.
In this case, Rhen likes to do his stretching while watching General Conference.
What he didn’t realize, until a few minutes in, was that he had a little shadow coming along for the ride. Every move he made… she followed, with sweet five-year-old precision.
“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” they say. And seriously, if you’re going to mimic someone you may as well do it with exercise–right?
I’m sure, in the end it will help a lot…
especially after all that French toast.
Heh, heh.
I found the sweetest little Lamb pattern that seemed to fit perfectly with my goal of recognizing the Savior’s gift to us on Easter. I wanted to make them for my kids but I just couldn’t get five of them finished in time.
So instead, I ran them around to my neighbors with a sweet little booklet called “It’s Not About the Bunny, It’s About the Lamb.”
I think I’ll be making a few more of these.
At least 5 anyway.
Happy Easter!

These little sweeties were so much fun to crochet that I didn’t want to stop making them.
It was a lovely way to use up a bunch of scrap colors that I had.
Since each chicken is made out of two Granny Squares I made both sides different…just for the heck of it.
They prettied up real easy in the little cello bags…
and Easter colored curly ribbon.
Ready to take around to my kids.
Happy Holy Week Everyone!
