Easter Bunny Beers

3.24.2016


DIY Easter Bunny Beer

Listen. I’m as excited for Easter as the kid next door. I can’t wait to hunt for eggs, eat lots of chocolate, and run around the yard on a sugar high. However, I’d like to do all of the above while also enjoying an adult beverage. Can you blame me? I’m sure those of you with your own little angels can relate. You can have at least one right?

My family likes to hold an annual egg hunt for the kiddos. When all the eggs have been found, they promptly start the annual beer hunt. Each adult brings a six pack of beer, and they’re all hidden in the yard. Finders keepers. If this doesn’t sound like the best hunt ever, you are no fun. It probably helps that Easter in Wisconsin can bring chilly temperatures, so your beers are ice cold upon opening. Take this weekend for example: I believe the area was just hit with an average of 4-6 inches of snow. Seriously.

DIY Easter Bunny Beers

I’m not as much of a beer drinker as I once was…I think all of the cheap beer in college ruined it for me. But when it comes time to participate in a beer can hunt, I would jump on board. Especially if the beers were all made into cute little bunnies like mine. It’s possible that’s setting the bar too high, but what’s a holiday without a little added holiday spirit?

DIY Easter Bunny Beers and Sodas

I saw someone make a bunny out of a brown paper bag and my mind went immediately to the liquor store. I mean, brown paper bags….beer cans…I’m not the only one that put two and two together, right? Here’s a good tutorial on how to cut your bag into bunny ears. Fill the bag with a beer (or a soda for those of you good respectable citizens out there), and use a glue gun to glue on a cottontail. You may have to fold a little of the bag around the can, and the glue gun can secure it for you. Don’t bother trying to make one with a 40oz beer. It doesn’t work so well. Trust me.

I’m hoping to find these hidden all over my yard this weekend. If you feel like making one for me, make sure you don’t hide it too hard. It’s supposed to be 70 degrees and ain’t no one got time for hot beer.

Somewhere along the way we forget to find the joy Somewhere along the way we forget to find the joy in all the little things. The little joys in twirling in a flower field. Stopping to smell the flowers. 

If we want our children to enjoy all of the little joys, we need to make sure we are doing it too. What little joy did you enjoy today?
Growing up, I dreamed of living by the beach and p Growing up, I dreamed of living by the beach and palm trees. It was magical to me. I never felt like my soul belonged in a landlocked state. A cold state. Were there beautiful things about it? Of course. Summer in Wisconsin will always have my heart. But living by the ocean will always be where my soul feels at home.

Over twenty years ago I got in a car and drove across the country to San Diego with a few friends. I’ve now lived here longer than I lived in Wisconsin. And even though I’ll always “be” from Wisconsin, my girls will always be from San Diego. And that’s a crazy concept to me. Raising the girls at the beach was something out of my dreams. So now I can teach them firsthand that we CAN make our dreams come true!
I remember when my oldest was little and someone t I remember when my oldest was little and someone told me that she NEEDED to go to preschool or she’d never catch up. I feel the same way today that I felt then, six years ago. My daughters never NEEDED preschool. Is it a good option for some parents (or the only option for others)? Yes. Is it BAD? No. But kids don’t NEED it. They need outdoor spaces, they need playgrounds and parks and beaches. They need free play with neighbors and friends and family. And yes, if none of those are options, of course preschool is not a bad idea, but can we stop pretending kids that don’t go are going to be irreparably harmed?
There’s just something about that second child. Th There’s just something about that second child. They pick up everything so quickly. They’re unstoppable. They want to do everything and they want to do it now. 

Second child life.
The day my husband looked at me and said, “I’m so The day my husband looked at me and said, “I’m so glad we have daughters,” I just about melted. Because like most men, he always envisioned a son. Someone he could pass his useless sports knowledge to, someone he could play mediocre golf with. Maybe someone to watch the hockey playoffs with (that doesn’t complain like I do). 

When we found out our second girl was coming, he famously said he watched the pink smoke hoping it would turn to purple and then blue. The first thing out of his mouth after he really digested it was, “now I have to pay for two weddings.”

And then one day, not long after the second came along, he realized why he’s a a girl dad. Because he couldn’t be more perfect for them. And they are exactly what he needed.
After seeing the beauty of this world, I just don’ After seeing the beauty of this world, I just don’t see how there’s any other option. God’s beauty is in everything, and sometimes I feel sad that I’ll never be able to see it all.
My husband and I never thought we’d be the homesch My husband and I never thought we’d be the homeschooling family, but here we are. What started as a few things here and there that we didn’t like, exploded into not liking much of anything in a traditional school, and liking just about everything about homeschooling. 

So now, here we are, on a random weekday, exploring our city. Picking up shells and learning about science. Meeting new people and gaining new friends. There’s so much more than doing lessons at home (although those happen too, don’t worry). There’s a whole big word out there to explore.
I have this theory. I think that as women, even wh I have this theory. I think that as women, even when we are done, we never really feel “done.” I think it’s innate. It’s biological. We were designed to procreate. We were designed to mother. When all of that is over, REALLY OVER, it’s a sad moment. It’s hard to accept. It’s hard to move on.

If you had asked me years ago if I would feel like this, I would have told you, “absolutely not. I’m done.” But when a woman gets to a “certain age,” it feels hard to accept. 

How do you feel?
The secret is out… I don’t spend more money than The secret is out…

I don’t spend more money than most. A party at a trampoline park is about double (if not more) expensive than this. A party at a park with a jumper? More expensive. It’s not about the money, it’s about the prep.

I spend months in advance planning for my parties. As soon as my girls decide on a theme, I take off (and we don’t do theme switches once anything has been purchased). My biggest money saving tip is to try to get the theme MONTHS in advance. I’m literally planning my daughter’s October birthday party already! 

So for those of you wondering, you absolutely CAN do fun parties on a budget. You just need a little more effort, and a little more time. 💕
