Easter Treasure Hunt Blog Hop 2022

Happy Friday to all! It is Good Friday today and it's time for this year's blog hop post. I'm an amateur for this Easter Hop so bear with me!

This little cutie is from GoodfloraStitchwort, a Scottish cross stitch designer who sells on Etsy...

I went back to her shop to get the name 
of the pdf but it's no longer there. I remember you could either use the word 'prim' like I have on the sheep, since I lean toward primitive-style stitching, or 'spring' which would've been perfect for today! The flowers are from my yard, wildflowers. Spring has definitely sprung around here! Unfortunately, because of an unforseen illness, there are no Easter get togethers this year. 

Year's ago when I was a child, our family along with an uncle's family, had cookouts on Easter Sunday. We always had our cookouts somewhere where all us kids could just run wildly, all 7 of us. Then we'd get called back in so the moms could hide Easter eggs, real ones, the ones we had all dyed the night before. I can't even remember if there was such a thing as plastic eggs back then! Because they were real eggs, we immediately went out to hunt them! Our two families always hung out together for every holiday and every birthday. Those 3 first cousins remain our closest out of 27 some first cousins that I have.

There you go, a few memories of Easter's past.

  4. Thanks for taking part in the Easter Hop this year. Love your Prim Sheep and the Easter memories too.
    We always have an Easter Raffle at my Toddler Group and I asked the parents to "donate an egg". One of the new mums thought I meant a hen's egg and was quite confused! She blamed babybrain LOL

  11. What a darling sheepy! When we were grown up (college age and newly married) my husband's family still hid one dozen real, hard boiled eggs. We alternated each year, me and my husband and his sister hiding for the parents, and them hiding for us the next year. We hid them in creative places (inside a cake! Taped up inside the chimney!) because with only a dozen it really counted. But you had to find them that same day as they were real eggs! Your memories brought back mine! Thanks! Happy Easter!
