I love Easter! It is a time my entire extended family from my mom's side gets together in St. George to visit and eat. Unfortunately, Tim and I weren't able to make it this year due to me not wanting to drive/go into labor on a 10 hour drive, so I brought some of the tradition to my Colorado friends. We got together on Saturday for a potluck picnic (which held up the tradition of LOTS of food) at a park.
When we lived in Washington DC, we always enjoyed seeing the Peeps Dioramas in the Washington Post around Easter. I took the idea to my family last year, and wanted to do it again this year. It started getting chili at the park, so we headed to the Newson's to make Peep's Dioramas. The creativity did not disappoint. Feel free to cast your votes in our comments:1.

Ok, so we cheated by bringing real props like the train.
Happy Easter!

I don't think bringing great props is cheating -- that's part of the creative process! Everyone did a great job -- FUN, FUN!!!
I'm impressed by the creativity all around. How fun!
I think you should frame the picture of your's and Tim's peep-likenesses. Hahah.
So many cute ideas! I love them all!
