Celebrate Spring!


                         

                       







Easter time has brought us another year to celebrate the new growth in our lives and those around us. It is a time to watch, to be aware that seasons come and go whether we are ready for them or not. My grandmother celebrated her 102nd birthday on April Fool's day. I think she has fooled us all! She certainly knows some tricks for longevity.






At Easter we celebrate the Life, Death & Resurrection of Jesus Christ.


Pagan beliefs also are honored as we celebrate the new life seen in Spring.






Marble eggs are treasures found at a garage sale many years ago.
This bunny was collected for one of the kids a few Easters back.

 Love Birds (salt and pepper anniversary gift from hubby) proudly nest on the dining room table.

The Lily represents spiritual awareness as well as the totem flower of mothers.











Easter brings hope for a season filled with new beginnings. A time to create new moments, as well as memories for a lifetime. Spring brings joy to our lives.

Shiny Things

"5 bucks a square foot," they said at the Home and Garden Show. So we sanded the floor ourselves.

About 3 days and 3 coats of polyurethane and we got it done.
I like shiny things! Thanks Mark. :)
