After Easter Sunday





How was your Easter?
Ours was lovely.
After church we headed over to my sister Mary Beth's home.
It was a beautiful day and she had her Easter table,
 home and gardens decorated so pretty!
(photos soon...)
We enjoyed a delicious meal of grilled lamb
 and a variety of side dishes that were made by the various friends
 that my sister and brother in law had invited to join us.
 We enjoyed everyone's company so much.
It was a perfect day!


I purchased some pretty Forget Me Nots
 at the grocery store to share with Mary Beth.


Here is a sprig along with some millinery flowers.




I just love this time of year!
Lots planned for this week...
how about you?

Lovely pics and sounds as though you had a lovely day too! Our weather here in Va was gorgeous and we all sat outside to eat a delicious dinner. Looking forward to seeing some pics of your sister's garden!
Blessings, Lorraine

Your Forget Me Nots are so pretty, and I love that bunny! I'm so glad you had such a nice Easter. I'll be busy all week too...no rest for the weary, or as Fifi likes to say...the wicked! ;)

Ik ben zelf helemaal gek van viooltjes en vergeetmenietjes. Leuk om jou foto's te zien met deze bloemetjes. Prachtige foto's en...een heel mooi viooltje.

Groet, Marieke.

Gorgeous images, Laura!

My Easter was good, but bittersweet. I lost an uncle the day before, but I rejoice knowing that He is with his Saviour now.

Have a wonderful week!
Hugs,
Anne
