The Spring, Birthday, Egg Hunt Edition

Going into this week I was a little concerned how we'd pass our time. Marcus is on Spring Break, and I wasn't sure how we'd make it through our days. But then celebrated all the things.

1. Birthday Surprises!
Marcus' celebrate his FOURTH birthday on the 23rd, and when Marcus woke he saw streamers, ceiling decorations, and balloons.
At the breakfast bar I had a few more surprises up my sleeve.
Obviously, more Paw Patrol ceiling decorations, a Paw Patrol party at breakfast, and of course, his gifts (which he opened before I took these pics).
And, the grand-daddy gift this year....
A Razor 360 that has been in use non-stop since the moment it was spotted.

2. Egg Hunt!
Marcus' school hosts an egg hunt every year, and this was our first time attending. 
Games and prizes started us off.
And the main event was a crazy free-for-all, which all the kids loved.
Success!

3. Easter Party!
We were so fortunate to be invited to a preschool friends party, hosted by the ever so talented Sarah, from Gilded Feather Events
There were bubbles and bunny ears.
Cute Easter crafts were available, which sadly, I couldn't get Marcus to sit still and do (exactly zero surprises there).
There was food and dessert for days.
And was there delicious champagne and pink lemonade to celebrate the moms surviving spring break? It's very possible. 
To round out the sweetest party, an egg hunt was held!
A big thanks to Sarah and Gilded Feather Events for inviting us to take a little break from our Spring Break!

4. More Birthday and Easter!!
Both sets of grandparents are in town this weekend (YAY!) as we are all ready to celebrate Marcus' fourth birthday party with a Paw Patrol party on Saturday. And Sunday we will all be together to celebrate Easter!

  1. I love everything you did for Marcus' birthday! The decorations are so fun. And his face in the pictures are priceless. What a lucky boy. I love his big gift. So cool! The egg hunts and party look like a blast. I wanted to host an Easter party this year, but with it being early I just ran out of time. Have a great weekend with the grandparents and happy Easter friend!

  6. I love how you decorated Marcus's room for his birthday! So fun! And, oh my goodness, the opening day link up may just be the greatest link up ever. I wish I still had my season tickets so I could actually share game day photos. Unfortunately, those are long gone. We'll definitely get all decked out though. Fun!!

  14. This Easter Egg Hunt seemed like an amazing event! I wish, I could attend such parties. I got an invitation for an electrified party at one of best venues in Los Angeles. It would be my first visit to any venue here in LA. Feeling so excited.
