Easter snuck up on us this year. Between birthday parties, school parties, going out of town, and all of our comings and goings, it just didn't work out for us to host a little Easter party like we've done for the past two years {here & here}. Grace and I were talking about it as I was putting her to bed Friday night, so I decided to surprise the littles with an easter-themed breakfast Saturday morning {yes, nothing like last minute!}.
Even though these chickies have been around since Grace's 2nd Easter, my littles are fascinated by them. I bring them out every year and they just can't get enough of them hopping around, hence the name for our breakfast, ahem, brunch! {what can I say, Saturday is my only day to sleep in...and by that I mean 8:00 a.m. - HA!} 
I grabbed a bunch of stuff I already had and set up the table in between making chocolate chip bunny pancakes, eggs, and toast...
I hung little baskets for the littles and filled them with eggs...
I lucked out that I already had these cute bunny plates I was planning on putting in their Easter baskets so I just pulled them out and voila! 
I placed the littles' easter pics from two years ago at their place settings and oh my, look how much this little guy has grown! *tear*
A little someone loved his cup!
His bunny ears...not so much. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
This little bunny makes me smile...
...but not as much as these two!
Some sweet vintage touches...
...and waaaaaay too much sugar for this time of day!
Oh my, this cinammon swirl toast was DELISH - you have to try it! {recipe here} he he he...yes, that link was intentional! Visit your Target Bakery for some of their Cinnamon Breakfast Bread - yummmmy!
The bunny pancakes were a big hit with the home crowd...YUM!
Mmm Mmm Good!
Proof that there were some healthy options served - HA!
Oh, I can't forget this sweet ducky parade!! This is the newest addition to my collection of vintage linens. It's actually a baby pillow!! Eeeek! 
It was a fun morning and the littles didn't seem to mind too much that breakfast didn't make it to the table until 10:30a...yikes!
With spring break coming to an end we had one last activity planned...easter egg dying! Up next!-------------------------------------------------------------------

We had a really fun time shopping for vintage treasures at Junk Bonanza and other local shops while in Minneapolis. Here are some of my fun finds!! {Oh, and please forgive the quality of the pics - I'm still trying to figure out my mom's point-n-shoot and how to edit the pics the best possible way).
First off I have to share this super sweet vintage child's cup that a very sweet {and sneaky} friend surprised me with after I fell in love with it but wouldn't buy it for myself ;)
Isn't it sweet??! Almost looks like a planter, but then you turn it and it's a little child's cup! 
Thank you sweet friend! I love it!
Doesn't it look sweet in the little pumpkin's bedroom?
Next up, my second favorite find...a vintage Christmas smock apron. I can just imagine the little that wore this long ago, helping her mama bake up some tasty treats...and I can't wait for the little pumpkin to wear it for this year's Bake Day!
Speaking of baking...how about this little gingerbread man cookie cutter?!
More Christmas stuff! How about this little vintage elf on the shelf??!! 
While in MN, Grace decided that our elf, "Super", needed a middle name so he's now Super Belly, the elf. I think this one will be Hudson's elf. $20 bucks says it'll be named Dinosaur, Dragon or Lion...his 3 current obsessions. HA!
One last Christmas find...can't wait to embroider that cute Santa with his naughty or nice list on an apron for the little pumpkin.
I think I must have definitely been in a red state of mind while shopping because these next few finds all share the bright cherry hue...dainty hankies, fun buttons, and an old berry brooch.
Love all these fun vintage buttons - some may just end up on some Lulu & Co. hats *wink*.
Not sure what I'm going to do with this brooch - definitely not wearing it - but I'm sure I'll come up with some project for it.
I love the yellow little girls coat in this old sewing pattern, so this bundled pack came home with me. Hoping I can convince Noonie to give it a try...hear that, Noonie? :)
But just in case, how about this cute denim peacoat?!
It's adorable on the little pumpkin, but my favorite are the little elbow patches made out of yo-yos!!
Of course I couldn't leave my favorite little guy out!! Not as many cute boy things, but I did find this vintage choo choo that has already become a favorite around here.
Hudson looooooves this little airplane & spoon combo that I found...who knew this little set would become the source of many, many, many "but I want to use it too" conversations!
And I LOVE this old Whistle soda crate! Looks great in Hudson's room but I may just sneak it for my halloween tablescape ;)
The book on the left is not old; I found it when we visited Wild Rumpus and I'm tucking it away for Hudson's easter basket next year...it's hard to find boyish easter stuff, so I was excited to find it! The one on the right is rather old...25¢ price tag...such sweet graphics on this one.
Love this vintage mini chalkboard and these books just have the sweetest illustrations - excited to add them to our collection.
I was excited to find these two unused valentines - we'll definitely put those to good use next year!
And look at this one!!!! Unused and sooo girly! I love writing the littles sweet notes on vintage cards. I think one day when they're older they'll enjoy reading them and knowing what was going on in their lives when they were little.
I'm secretly hoping to turn this one into an embroidered design for a Valentine apron dress for Grace. Hope I can make it work!
I bought these next two for two separate sewing projects - can't wait to show you...soon!!
Love the crochet edge - so dainty and sweet!
This fun apron was made out of a clothespin bag! The feedsack pockets go all the way down.
This scene reminds me of The Nutcracker...
One last little find...
Can't pass up this sweet prayer for wee ones everywhere...
Thanks for letting me share all these fun finds!! Hmmm...maybe I should open up a shop or something...you know, just to have a good excuse to shop for more sweet finds! HA!
