Oh my heavens! I came home from work to find a HUGE box waiting for me to rip open...I looked and saw that Rochelle was my Easter Diva!

First off I must say, she is extremely generous and I love EVERYthing in this basket.

Awesome package!!!
I have to say, Rochelle is beyond generous! She is so sweet and her exchanges always rock. She's sent me several fun packages that weren't even part of an exchange.......they were "just because".


I love seeing all of the packages though and cannot wait for more!

I agree Rochelle you did a GREAT job!!

January I am so glad you liked your package and you deserved this little pick me up after the time you have had lately!! I am glad it cheered you up!!

Enjoying seeing everyone's fun stuff and I have to say I had a lot of fun shopping for my own kiddos the last few days!

Looking forward to a possible summer exchange!! I am def ready to participate in another one!!

Oh man, that package rocks! Good Job Rochelle, that purple tote is so so so cute! January, I am glad that it made your day.

This is so fun watching everyone get them, and the great stuff in them

Mine will be in the mail hopefully tomorrow, I have just a few little things to go back to grab.

Another great Easter basket! These early bird shippers are making the fun start early for our Easter basket exchange. It's great to be seeing pretty Easter baskets so soon. I finished up my Diva's Easter basket last night and plan to get it shipped out today.

It's a gorgeous day here in Northern Arizona. Lots of sunshine, but not too hot yet. A perfect day for my birthday! *< Several of my co-workers threw a Birthday Breakfast Bash--complete with cupcakes--for me this morning. It was lots of fun, and a good way to start the day if you have to work on your bday.

​

Hope all you Divas have a great day today!

Thanks everyone for the nice compliments!

Thank you Beth and Kelly!

January- I'm really glad you liked the basket (or pimped beach pail )! I tried to throw in as much cute stuff as possible. Enjoy the goodies! I'm glad you liked the candy from DL (the one with Jessica Rabbit on the box) and that they were yummy.

Happy Birthday Kathy!

Jen, that is so cute, so cute, love all the crafty stuff, and the antique buttons, how cool.

What a great basket.

Okay picked up my last things today, going to try to mail it tomorrow

 

[Queenbillabong]

Yay for another awesome basket full of Easter goodies

 

[DizNee Luver]

Loving all the neat baskets!!! Feels like it should be Easter already.......it's really, REALLY late this year!!

 

[SKWDW]

Another fabulous basket! Great job Bridget, so special for Jen!

Mine shipped out today at lunch time, so it should be in my Diva's hands early next week.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, it's been a great day so far!

I know! Still almost a month away. I'm ready for it now!
Well, not really since I haven't done my kid's baskets, but time wise it feels like it should be here already.

It's funny, I find it is so hard to shop for my younger son sometimes. Tahoe's basket is complete. We are doing outdoor themed baskets for the kids to get them outside playing so in both baskets we have: candy (duh), bug viewers, sidewalk chalk, little plants for them to grow, chocolate bunny, bubbles, leather bracelets from DL I had stamped with their names after the Billy show, and dart refills for their nerf guns. Added to Tahoe's basket is a journal I picked up at Kitson during the girls trip (he loves writing in journals) and Diary of a Wimpy Kid Uno game. We may add a soccer ball too. For Brydon I have not come up with things to add except for a new baseball bat or helmet.

Bridget- nice job on the basket!

Jen- very cool! Love seeing all the pics of the baskets. Can't wait to see more!

Those ideas sound fun. I need to get some sidewalk chalk for my twins too.
We are taking a trip to San Diego in May so I'm going to get them some things for that. New sunglasses, hats, things to do in the car, stuff that is fun, but also useful. I'm trying to steer clear of the junky basket filler type of stuff this year.

I know what you mean about junky stuff....It is hard to find non-junk that fits in the basket Before my grandma passed away in late 2007, she had made up enormous baskets for me every year, and also for my sons after they were born. Even though I have taken on this task the last 4 Easters, it still is a stuggle since she did such an amazing job. This is of the last basket she did for my brother in 2003, before he passed away. It is half emptied at this point, but he seems to be enjoying it.
