PART TWO: Celebrating Easter Sunday 2015 with feast and friends

This is PART TWO of a two part blog post.  See here for PART ONE.



Last week, I shared our Easter home and early Sunday morning holiday celebration.  In the afternoon, we had company over for a celebratory feast.  It's a holiday!

Party appetizers...


Carrots of course


I even found bitty bunny crackers!
Homemade salted caramel cookies,
pastel marshmallows
veggies
and cheese.






Spring veggies!
Chilled mint pea soup from one of my favorite cookbooks, 
Keepers!


Fresh-made citrus punch...


Chris was in charge of hiding 55 real eggs and 40 plastic ones 
(including some special money-filled eggs!)



Hey babe, 
Would you hold this pretty basket for a **quick** picture before you hide these?
pretty please and thank you
love you




Ready,
set,
GO!







We love these two!





Battling it out...



Wait a second, we're supposed to be on a mad egg hunt 
but Kathy found some sunshine instead.



Marc looks happy about this hunt.



After our hunt, we finished up dinner prepping.

I SO treasure EVERY comment. I am not able to respond individually to each one anymore, although I TRULY wish I could! It is hard for me to say that because I love hearing from everyone and sharing back. I still try my best, but it may take awhile! :)

ALSO, I am unable to link up to new link up parties due to time constraints. Thank you for your understanding.

Thank you for EACH lovely note! <3 I appreciate YOU.
