Chocolate, salmon, and poodles



Happy Easter everyone!!!! Although this message is coming a week late it holds no less sincerity. Easter was special this year because it is the FIRST year I've gotten to spend it with my Devin. Normally this time of year he is in Moab visiting family or doing windows but due to bad weather he decided to put his trip off for a few weeks. So what did we do..hmmmmm..let me think...
First I made a special trip to WalMart to purchase my child's first Easter outfit(isn't that what parents do for their kids for Easter Sunday). I was very pleased with the outfit and I have decided to make holiday outfits a norm for Otto.
Sunday morning after we spruced ourselves up to our best ability we drove to Cedar City. Once we were there we had the traditional...take a guess.... Easter egg hunt with our good friends The Tufte's. After the hunt it was time to chow down on some smoked salmon(ham for Devin), cream cheese, and bagels, my FAVORITE meal on the planet! Once our scrumptious meal had been devoured we filled Devin in on the family secret... the story of Maryjo's Easter poodle cake. Basically its a cake that is supposed to be a lamb but looks like a poodle, and by gosh do we get a kick out of seeing it and talking about it every year!
Thanks to the Koepps and the Tuftes for making this Easter a hit!

  1. Sounds like a fun Easter! I want to see a picture of this poodle cake though.:) Devan doesn't like Salmon?? What's wrong with him? And of course I love Otto's Easter outfit. Super cute!
