Motherhood Bliss: Daycare Easter Egg Hunts

It is time for the boys Easter parties at daycare!!

I signed up to bring cupcakes to both of their parties, so thanks to Pinterest, I saw this super cute idea to make little "Easter baskets" out of cookies. The day before the parties, Dani and I made them together.

We gathered all of our ingredients and started whipping up the cookies. We chose to do 2 dozen sugar and 2 dozed chocolate chip cookies.

The Pinterest recipe called for green cocanut, but being that I was feeding 2-3 year olds, Dani came up with the idea to use green icing, so we did!! We got some key lime icing and then added the sweet tart jelly beans on top!!

Here is our finished product....

It was quite the hit for the party!! It was the perfect mixture of sweet and sour and the kids, parents, and teachers all loved them!! Luckily I made a few extra and kept them at home because we had ZERO left over!

This year it was tough because their parties started at the same time, egg hunts were on seperate playgrounds and their parties were in seperate classrooms. Luckily Josh was able to get off so it was a juggling act to try and see both boys at the right times for their egg hunts. It did turn out that Brooks class had to wait for another class to finish egg hunting before they could go out so we were able to watch Cade race to get his eggs and then run over to watch Brooks......

Brooks and his friends got to eat their food first....

While Cade's class got ready to go and find all of their eggs!! Mrs. Fronick had to lay down the rules for them though before they started....NO OPENING THE EGGS!! Ha, yeah right!
