Easter Weekend Fun [2024]

Today I'm sharing some pictures from our fun Easter weekend! We had lots of family time and ate lots of yummy food...two of my favorite things. 😊

Sammy had been learning the real meaning of Easter while at preschool, and I loved listening to him recap Easter. We made resurrection rolls, which was so fun!



It was the perfect little activity for a Saturday morning, and Sammy thought it was extra delicious. 😉


I tried my hand at making sourdough discard brownies, and oh my word. These were so chewy and  so full of yummy flavor. I will absolutely be making these again! 


We also dyed Easter eggs.


On Saturday evening, Sammy was inspired to leave the Easter bunny a little snack. I think he was relating Easter to Christmas, and leaving cookies and milk for Santa. Well, we were out of carrots, so Sammy left the Easter Bunny some grapes and water. He asked our Alexa if grapes were a safe choice for bunnies, and luckily she answered yes. Haha. 




On Sunday morning, it was time for church. Dustin had to work Easter weekend, but he pulled up afterwards so we could snap a quick family photo. The sun was shining in poor Sammy's eyes! 

It was a great little weekend, but as I drove into work on Monday, I was wishing we had one more day off. 😉 Have a great Tuesday!

The Brisel family is OFF!

I'm so excited to share that our family is celebrating the holiday season at our very favorite place...Disney World! This trip has been a long time coming. We have been saving and planning for over a year, and yesterday we [yes we...Santa doesn't get credit for this one 😉] surprised our boys with a trip to Disney World for their Christmas gift. Disney is truly Dustin and my happy place, so we couldn't be more excited to bring the boys!  While we're gone I plan to blog about our trip, so I'm hoping to share an update tomorrow evening. For some who may not know, I am working my way through the certification process of becoming a Smart Moms Travel Agent, which is a travel company that specializes in trips to Disney World. I'm hopeful that it might turn into a fun hobby that lets me share a little bit of my Disney knowledge with other families. 😊 I thought blogging our trip would be a fun resource to share with future clients! For a little recap of today... We wer...

Disney World: Day 5 Recap

Rest days are a necessity for any Disney vacation, no matter the length of your trip. 😉 We have been pushing it and hoofing it all over Disney World, so we were overdue! Our plans today included a character breakfast with Minnie and her friends, spending time at the pool, and a character dinner at 1900 Park Fare.  Both boys slept in until 7:00 which was amazing! We got dressed and ready and began our way towards Cape May Cafe located at The Beach Club Resort. We took the Skyliner from our resort to the International Gateway at Epcot. From there, we had about a 5 minute walk to our restaurant. Super easy!  This character meal is one of the lesser known options for character dining. We've done character dining at Topolino's Terrace (amazing!), Tusker House and Chef Mickey's, so we were excited to try something different. Minnie, Daisy, Donald and Goofy are all dressed in their beach attire, and make their way around the restaurant several times. You're also able to do a ...

Jackson Nicholas is TWO!

Jackson Nicholas is officially TWO years old today!  He's been so fun lately, and definitely showing off his two-ness. 😉 He's got a LOT to say.  He loves his big brother and wants to do anything and everything that he does.  He loves his family and talks about them all day long. He loves Mickey Mouse and can't wait for his next trip to the castle.  He loves to play outside! We'll be living in the backyard this summer.  He loves to EAT! This has been his biggest area of growth from this time last year. At his first birthday party, he was just able to eat single-ingredient foods due to his allergies - we just didn't know what was safe for him. Yesterday he was able to have a cupcake..with frosting!  Such a win!  We love him and his silly little personality. We can't wait to celebrate him today!
