my family was planning on having a picnic in the park on easter sunday like we did last year.
...but it rained.
this actually worked out really well because my mom turned her living room into the perfect picnic spot.
we had a picnic blanket, pillows, plants, stone birds, a park bench, and even a ceramic turtle!
she even had a compilation of nature sounds playing!
we feasted on salad, sandwiches, chips, and strawberry shortcake.
(ivy was sad because she just had her wisdom teeth pulled and couldn't really chew.)
after lunch, we decorated brown paper bags to use for the easter piñata.
ivy's bag is missing from the lineup... it had a mysterious encounter with the trash can...
isn't levi's bag creepy?? he drew frank from donnie darko. we decided that his bunny and my bunny (bruce) were a couple.
a pretty funny video from the easter piñata is to come!
that is such a creepy bunny lol! looks like you all had a great time =)

I just love how you guys improvised and had a living room picnic! It looks like such a memorable time.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a good idea, I don't think I would have ever thought about that! His bunny was a little creepy for Easter, but a good drawing none the less.
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Picnics inside were definitely part of my life growing up near San Francisco! The weather would suddenly turn dark, damp and miserable, but my mom was wonderfully clever, just like your mom!

@micaela - ivy's stockings are just regular black nylons with a ton of runs in them... that's how she likes to wear them. haha!
