Easter splendour

The Easter tree is up and adorned, eggs have been painted, egg cards have been created to tie onto chocolate bunnies, the bunny himself visited and ate the carrots we had left for him and an early morning egg hunt revealed lots of tiny eggs to count and sort by colour.

It was lovely to see the kids decorate the Easter tree completely by themselves this year, atop a pair of stools, as this time we dragged home a massive branch blown down in recent storms. I think Roboboy has a fantastic eye for colour and balance.

Thank you all so much for your kind words of support with our recent burglary, we are just getting on with it all but if it isn't already obvious by the shocking layout of these recent posts, I am not at all enjoying this blogging on an iPad situation I have found myself in and I can't wait for the computer to be replaced.

I seem to be able to dump a few photos and throw down some text with next to no ability to move anything around to make it prettier or more readable. If anyone has any tips they would be greatly appreciated. Back soon with some long awaited Reno news.

  1. I have never been able to blog on the i pad. You're easter tree is most lovely. As for the egg sorting ...does Roboboy do socks?
    Thought you'd be off to your Easter pad on the Sunshine Coast. If so we might bump into you there!

  4. I love the Easter tree that your kids decorated. That is what I need to do next year. The little easter ornaments seem to be multiplying and I need a place for all of them.

  5. Love the Easter tree. We did Easter very low key this year, no one seemed to notice. 2 eggs each for the kids and then off to the beach. Glad to hear things are moving on a little since your burglary. Hugs from across the ditch to you xo

  7. Oh no a burglary.... how awful. Love the Easter tree, the colours are indeed fabulous. As far as blogging on the iPad... impossible. Have tried two different apps and both were useless. x

  12. Your tree is gorgeous! I didn't do any decorating this year as I was stuck in bed recovering from a little op but there's hope for next year. Look at your little man with his eggs all colour sorted, bless him. Him and my George would get along like a house on fire! Mel x

  13. Your Easter tree is beautiful Mel, I didn't decorate either, I don't know why but I think the weekend just crept up way too quickly.
    Hope your new computer isn't too far away. I'm not a fan of doing things on the ipad either.
    PS I sent your little parcel last week, you should get it early next week xx
