I am so loving this time of year!
Spring and Fall are my two favorite seasons….
Today I decided to do something special for my boys.
Jack my youngest was the first to see it, of course the first to dig in the jelly beans too.
He loved it!!~ He was so excited over the wind up chick.
I will make some strawberry shortcake for dessert and they can sit at their special place and enjoy!~
Happy Spring to you all.
Diy little votives
Dollar tree placemats, bowls, and candles
These little chicks are wind ups…so cute.
Little chicks are also from the dollar tree
Larger bunnies from Marshalls.
Little trees with eggs dollar tree along with the placemats.
Cute little apron from Marshalls.
The boys really enjoyed this Dollar tree little table setting.
Spring is all around.
Fun to just add a splash of color here and there.
Getting ready for some burger salad eating!
Little Foam letters also come in a pack from the Dollar tree.
Thanks for stopping over today.
Happy Spring!

March 15 at 10:41 pmOh, Martha has nothing on you. Such cute Easter goodies and love the ruffley apron.
Crystal says
March 15 at 10:52 pmLove the apron and the new Easter decor. I'll have to try some in my kitchen. I love that you did it for your boys. My girls would love it too. I understand all about your comment at the museum. My girls are almost 7 and 4 and some times I try to take them in like I could keep them this age forever. It's hard being a momma! Some parents can't wait for their kids to grow up and move off. NOT ME!! I love finding other people who feel like I do. 🙂

March 15 at 11:31 pmI love it when the Easter Bunny comes early! (Look out, Martha, you've got competition!) And the Easter Bunny's new apron is simply divine!

March 15 at 11:42 pmBeautiful Debbie! Very festive. I love the new apron. We all want to see a photo of you wearing it!
Matty says
March 16 at 12:01 amThat is quite a talent you have Deb. The artistic side of you. Gives a feeling of Easter.
I like the look and feel of your kitchen. It looks very cozy and inviting. And it's been a while since I've seen a design with the oven and microwave in the wall. That's a nice touch.
And is that a chalkboard behind the sink?
LKristine says
March 16 at 12:06 amAwesome Debbie! I love your apron and what great ideas you come up with. I bet your boys loved it! My daughter would love it!
Martha says
March 16 at 12:25 amWhat fun!!!! You are so creative — love everything you did and it so says Easter!
Jemsmom says
March 16 at 12:48 amLove your Easter decorations! I love that you did an individual setting for each boy. I know that makes them feel so special! How did you get the candle in the egg cup? I love that! Move over Martha!!!

March 16 at 12:50 amSo gorgeous! yes, I feel the Spring!!! Just a few more weeks and these windows will be open and I'm hoping for a warm breeze!
Debbie says
March 16 at 12:52 amYes Marty that is a chalkboard behind the sink. Kathryn I took tea light candles and removed the tin, then I gently placed it in the shell, easy peasy!
Mid-Atlantic Martha says

March 16 at 1:10 amWhat a precious and thoughtful thing to do for the boys. I love the bunny and the jelly beans are just perfect. The tablesetting is so pretty and you were so creative. Everything is just wonderful. I love the apron and the cookbook on display. That just makes a kitchen so inviting. Thanks so much for joining the party today. I love it all. Hugs, Marty

Lynette says
March 16 at 1:33 amYou have a lovely blog and a lovely family!!
I couldn't help but read down to your story about being a mom to boys – I felt the same way about my girl – she will be 20 in 2 days – but I just felt like I had to have a girl – and it has all worked out for the best – although to be honest – she is the most sportiest girl there is and I had to learn very quickly about all the things I said I didn't know about – ha! But, I wouldn't trade her for the world – just like you wouldn't your boys – I guess it just all works out!
Hope all this rambling makes sense – I still can't get over her being 20 – seems like yesterday I was bringing her home!
Jo says

March 16 at 2:36 amHi Debbie! I am so pleased that you stopped by. I just completed my first year of blogging in December 2009 and I love it. It can be quite time consuming but it's been a real treat doing it!
Your Easter display on your island is so charming. I can just imagine how pleased your little guys must have been. I miss decorating for little ones. Even the grands are all grown now. (Not even I believe that!) 🙂
Tell your mother I said thank you so much for sending you by. Do I know her?
I think I will tag along with you and see what the new "Martha" has in store for us. Learning…always learning! 🙂
Hugs and love to you,
Mona

March 18 at 6:49 pmHi Deb,
The Easter tablesetting of yours is so wonderful. I love the yellow-green colours mixture. My fav colour.
I haven't an island table therefore I drool with yours.
Have a wonderful day, Lady and have a great w/end to come.
