egg hunt invites.

I saw these spotted eggs on Poppytalk and thought they would be the perfect invite for Lily's egg hunt birthday party. I am super happy with how well they turned out. I spray painted mine and let them dry, then dotted with acrylic paint.

This was the invite rolled up inside the egg.

and the box all packaged and ready to be delivered.

Stay tuned for more fun party details!

Pillow Pet GIVEAWAY!!!

You've heard me discuss pillow pets before, I've come a long way from my original opinion of not needing any more stuffed animals in our home. Pillow Pets recently sent Finn the dolphin and he has fallen in love with it. He sleeps with it, loves it and says "soooooooft, soooo sooooft" in his best toddler gargle. The girls are always trying to sneak it out of his crib and use it for themselves, to say it is well loved would be an understatement. They are all hoping the "Easter Bunny"adds to their pillow pet collection.

If you're hoping to surprise your favorite kids with a pillow pet for Easter now is the perfect time!! 8 different styles are currently on sale AND I have a 20% off promo code (for those 8 styles) for you at the end of the post.. meaning you can get a pillow pet for less than $15, that is a bargain that I say is definitely worth it!

In addition to being soft and snuggly in real life, pillow pets has recently revamped their website to include new styles of pillow pets… check them out, they have some darling ones (orange butterfly and dragon anyone?), games and the pillowpedia section letting you know the different places the characters come from, your kids are sure to get a kick out of the new site.

Along with the 20% off promo code Pillow Pets is giving away your choice of one of the following pillow pets today (Ms. Lady Bug, Magical Unicorn, Comfy Panda, Playful Penguin, Buzzing Bumble Bee, Squeaky Dolphin, Silly Monkey, Snuggly Puppy)! I'm so excited and I hope you are too.

These are Ryan's very most favorite cookies. They are fun to make, as there is a surprise in the middle, the kids love them, everywhere we've taken them, they receive rave reviews and I've had multiple requests for the recipe, so what better place to put it than on the world wide web? You should make them.. really. They'll make your day!

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Cookie:

1 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup peanut butter

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla

2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

36 Reese's peanut butter cups, unwrapped

Glaze:

2 cups chocolate chips

1/4 cup peanut butter

Combine butter, sugars and peanut butter. Add egg and vanilla. Mix, then add flour, baking soda and salt. Makes a soft dough. Divide dough into 36 balls, push a peanut butter cup into each ball and wrap the dough up around to cover the pb cup. Place on cookie sheet and allow room for cookie to spread while baking. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. Melt glaze ingredients and drizzle or frost center top of each cookie. Enjoy!

eighteen25… I {heart} you!

First thing in my reader this morning was this DIY project from eighteen25. Those girls are always coming up with stuff that makes my heart skip a beat.

I'm on my way to get supplies to make these as soon as I drop Stella off to preschool. They'll be the perfect addition to Lily's surprise easter birthday party!
