Looking snappy for Easter

They're no relation to me, but I love their hats and gloves! Easter is such a joyful day, it's a day to bring out your best, whether that means something already in your closet or if you're lucky, a new frock.   This is a beautiful outfit that would be perfect for Easter, except that here in Fairhope, we are being told there's a 70% chance of rain! Oh no! There go all the Easter bonnets! These shoes would have to be replaced with chunky rain boots. Boo!   Here's an image from the New Orleans Easter Parade a few years ago. That's one parade in New Orleans I'd love to see. Just a bit more tame than Mardi Gras, I imagine.   These girls look just like the teenagers at my church when I was a little girl. They would always dress so nicely and I thought they were supermodels who would occasionally babysit me.   Of course, Barbie rocks Easter. That girl has it all together. She's a stewardess and veterinarian, and also drives a corvette.   This hat is quite a statement, and the pearls draw your eyes away from  . . . her eyes. Spooky Easter.   This is more my style of a sharp looking hat. Just adorable. And speaking of adorable . . .   Ooohh! Most of the little girls around here sport big bows in their hair instead of hats, but you have to admit, this is pretty cute.   Here's my recipe for Easter Bunny Snacks from last year. (HERE). Hope you have your Easter outfit ready to go and your day of celebration is rain-free!  

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled

Let not your heart be troubled Let not your soul be sad Easter is a time of joy When all hearts should be glad Glad to know that Jesus Christ Made it possible for men To have their sins forgiven And, like Him, to love again So at this joyous season May the wondrous Easter Story Renew our faith so we may be Partakers of His glory
