Happy Easter! Well, Happy day-after-Easter. Still, I wanted to share these cute little bunny faces with you before I let the holiday go.

My favorite part of Easter has always been decorating eggs with my mom and sister on the Saturday before Easter. We’d pick out the best looking ones for relatives and eat the rest. Now that I have kids of my own we make colored eggs at our house together. Miss Evelyn is super eggcited this… Continue reading Easter Egg Cookies
