After I assembled the chocolate house we sat down last night to decorate it with jelly beans, peeps and chocolate Easter bunnies. Simon loved decorating it with jelly beans and putting snow "white chocolate" on it. Never did I think with Easter at the end of April would we still have snow, but since it has snowed off and on all week, I guess his adding snow was appropriate.

Have a great weekend everyone.
