Focus52: Easter Week 16

EASTER PAST
A blast to the past! These eggs were created by the girls over 15 years ago. We were instructed to not blow out the egg contents - just to allow them to dry out over time. If you gently shake them now, you can hear the hard, nugget dried out centre. I keep envisioning them breaking now and worry about the smell they might create! Needless to say I handle them with much care when they are brought out each year. Making Ukrainian Easter Eggs is so much fun - learn how at http://www.learnpysanky.com/


EASTER PRESENT
Easter is about family; here that includes Kodee and Becky! This is a silly moment (an often occurrence in this house)  that comes after baking and decorating 36 Easter cupcakes. They told me cupcakes taste best when baked with a martini...

EASTER FUTURE
This holiday weekend included Earth Day on Good Friday. In celebration we hiked to the Second Wildlife Marsh. I loved this breathtaking view - it reminds me the future is open to any number of possibilities.

Gorgeous shots! I had no idea you could just let them dry out like that. Cool! And they're totally beautiful. What a (fragile!) keepsake.

The eggs are a work of art! And I would have to agree that a martini or glass of wine always helps a project along!

Love your King Charles Spaniels too. Don't know if I'm writing from my blog for writers or my blog for animal lovers but I have 3 dogs...one of them is a King Charles!
