The 2014 Easter Basket & So Much More! {{Giveaway!!}}

Last year Sarah put together an Easter Basket Blog Hop and I was so glad when I saw she was hosting the hop again this year.

Marcus is still a little too young to fully grasp the idea of the Easter Bunny, and all the goodness that accompanies Easter, but that didn't stop me from putting together a basket for him. 

I've decided to reuse this basket each year. I love the basket, and I honestly don't have enough room or storage to get a new basket each year.

 The goodies:

Like last year's basket, I included a couple of books I knew would captivate the little man - can't beat pop up Mickey Mouse and pop up tractors! I added some spring colored play dough. A festive little sip cup. Don't forget Happy Feet (we haven't tried to watch any movies, but I picked this one up for super cheap, I couldn't resist). Throw in some side walk chalk - because you can never have enough of that stuff. Plop in two carrot rockets - you know those will be fun to chuck around the house for a few minutes. A pinwheel, or two - apparently Marcus loves these things. And, the candy, which may or may not have been purchased based upon what I like… 

Admittedly, most of these items came from Target's One Spot. For a brief moment I had a little Mommy guilt, as I didn't get crazy with his basket. But, then again, the Easter basket isn't really what we're celebrating.

Be sure to join Sarah and link up your Easter baskets, too!
