Monday Check-In :)

Hello and happy Monday to you all!

First up - look what bloomed over the weekend...

Aren't they just gorgeous! Spring is definitely springing :) 

This morning we started off with a bit of sunshine which was lovely, although it clouded over as the day progressed, but starting off with sunshine streaming through the {clean!} windows is always enough to put me in a good mood.

I've brought a few twigs of Magnolia indoors, I'm hoping that they will open up by the end of Holy Week - which is next week already - and give us their beautiful pink display of delicate flowers.

This morning I was having a look at our schedule for this week and next and was pondering on how quickly Lent has passed by. Our weeks are particularly busy at the moment as DD2 has a major dancing production that they are preparing for. It runs throughout Holy Week which is a bit of a pain as it is already a week with lots going on. It would have been nice if they week-long production was in the 2nd week of the Easter holidays ;)

With everything feeling very 'spring-ish' around here, I was inspired to put up a few Easter decorations. I know that it's perhaps a bit early but I do love my Easter tree and and bunting and quite fancy having them on display for a bit longer than a week. 

The mantle will be decorated a bit more over Holy Week

For this years Easter tree I spray-painted a few twigs, hung our usual white and yellow decor eggs on it's branches and added a new set of yummy edible eggs - which the girls can add to their Easter-egg stash on Easter morning.

Of course a couple of those little speckled eggs went 'missing' during the filling process ;)

Well I hope your week is off to a magnificent start! I'll see you back here very soon.
