Easter Morning

It's Easter morning and what a beauty of a day! The girls are going to go hunt for their eggs when they awake and then we will plant some new flowers in the front yard.

Adam and I agreed that the Easter Baskets would end this year. Ok, Adam said, "Sam will be driving in two years...and still getting easter baskets????" Putting this in perspective for me...LOL...I went shopping with them yesterday for some new flowers.

Walking around all the flowers the girls both said how it reminded them of Grandma. I completely agreed. Grandma=garden. :) Happy thoughts of family bounced between us as we shopped for just the right flowers. We picked out Sam's fav at the moment, Pansies.

The girls felt their first kiss of the sun this week and so I invested in an aloe plant. :0

Sam & Alex have fallen in love with cacti as well. Each purchased a small potted one and today we will repot them in larger pots and water once a week. In the hopes that they will sprout their brightly colored blooms at least once!

With birds chirping and skies of blue, we will bring even more life to our yard and home this day. Thank you Jesus for this celebration of life, that always begins with you! :)

(((HUGS))) and Kisses...Happy Easter!

Flowers are such a great idea for an Easter tradition. Lovely flowers. And yes grandma has very nice flower gardens. Very good for the soul.
