easter
03
this year, craig and i hosted easter dinner at our house for his family. it was a very relaxed, sunny and special day. at the last second, i threw this quilt on the table as the tablecloth. it was a perfect punch of color .

before everyone came over for dinner we went to church. im pretty sure it doesnt get any more heavenly than a sunny easter sunday in seattle.

im glad i set the table the day before because i spent the afternoon after church preparing the dinner.

i found these little egg cups at crate & barrel the night before (could NOT believe there were any left!) for a dollar a piece.

05
i wanted something light and springtime-ish (not chocolate) for the dessert. so i made my aunt's cake with homemade lemon curd, seven minute frosting and toasted coconut.

i need to make it more often...

after dinner and dessert, grandma cheri surprised the boys with an easter egg hunt in the backyard. she is SO good to them.

i honestly dont know how that day could be topped. i smile just thinking about it.
