Sorry for the lack of bloggy goodness lately. I haven't had much exciting to report, really. No knitting mojo, and now the kids are on spring break for two weeks so we've been running around, errands and bowling and library and a field trip to see Monsters vs. Aliens in 3D down in Cambridge. That was fun!
Darling spouseman comes home soonish and I am really, REALLY looking forward to that.
I'l placate you all with pictures of Lily's Easter bonnet she wore during the fundraiser a couple of weeks ago (we raised 350 pounds for the preschool - whooo!). Didn't get a shot during the contest, but got a couple after the party, before we disassembled the bonnet for Easter re-use.
Below those pics are some from our Easter egg dyeing this afternoon. We used a different type of Paas kit, with little sponges and supah-concentrated dyes, so the eggs look really neat! David wasn't as into it as Lily, but he did 4 or 5 eggs... The chocolate and jelly beans are laid in, and I am sure we will have a little hunt tomorrow after church.
Semi-confidential to Jill - I tried the purple foo-foo dress on Lily today - it's really big around the waist and chest, but we'll cinch it with the sash. She looks adorable! It will make a great Easter and birthday outfit. Does anyone remember the Saturday Night Live GAP girls? "Just...cinch it!!"

Pretty, pretty eggs!!! Dyeing eggs was always my favorite part of the Easter preps.
The top egg looks so pretty and floral-y.
Wow, I haven't been online in forever! No wonder the dress didn't fit as well in the waist --Lily is shooting up these days. Ah, well, cinching it is the ticket. ;-)
