Hello, I hope everyone had an amazing Easter. I know I did. My kids have really spoiled me this weekend. I taught a class at Priceless Scrapbooks on Saturday. When I got home Zack and Sabrina (his girlfriend) were here cooking a birthday dinner for me. Matt and Candace showed up and cooked the appetizer. Then JP and Tammy showed up with more goodies. I know that Zack had started planning this last week. He wanted to do something special for me for my birthday. I don't think that Zack and Sabrina ever left the kitchen, they even did all the dishes....! Thanks for a wonderful birthday gift. I was the Queen! lol
Everyone went to JP and Tammy's for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. They had about 25 people show up for a great dinner. I am very impressed that my boys have turned out to be such good cooks.
Here are the little jelly bean boxes that I made for Easter. I used them for the table centerpiece and let anyone that wanted a little Easter treat take one during the day. I even had one.
Here is the picture of the stationery box that I taught this weekend. I had promised everyone that took the class that I would put this picture of the inside for them.
I want to share a picture of an alligator that we saw last week on the river. There is a red alert out on the gators right now. They are nesting. This one was about about 8 feet long as best as we can guess. We continued fishing down the river and heard a racket coming toward us and another gator launched itself off the river bank about 40 feet from the boat. It was one of the biggest alligators that I have seen on the Okalawaha River. I know it was at least 10 feet long and the most aggressive one I have seen in the wild. I would defiantly stay away from her nest. It happened so quickly that I didn't get a picture of her. We didn't hang around! lol

The boxes are adorable Sue. Very festive in the colors.
That is why I do not canoe down the Ocklawaha anymore. That gator is way to scary!!!!
Happy Birthday!
