I hope you are getting ready for Easter at your house. We had Snow to fill our lawns...
I remember as a little girl watching my mom. She would boil and color the eggs; Dad would give her the money to go purchase my sister and I new white gloves and a hat and an Easter dress. She would put on her clean apron and get to work making the house
clean and neat; she would make a list of items (with a pencil) for the grocery for Easter dinner; and put on the lace tablecloth and her blue and white dishes and make the table oh so pretty.

A dinner that included a nice spiral ham; homemade potato salad; baked beans; a veggie tray; a glass dish with pickles and olives; deviled eggs ; fresh warm rolls; and a homemade dessert.

We would have an Easter Egg hunt out on the lawn and fill our baskets with these real eggs some chocolates; and plastic eggs. We would then all enjoy the family getting together ; laughing; sharing stories and all the ladies in the kitchen cooking and washing up dishes and chatting together.

Now that I am older my days are filled with my family. This year some have moved farther away; some are visiting their husbands side of the family; so..... it may be smaller but I still bake( give to others); decorate; and plan a nice dinner for those that are here.

A GREAT BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DAUGHTER RUTHIE!!!!

She is a wonderful daughter. Always caring for her family; others and a hard worker.
We love her and pray she has a wonderful day!!

Make a tradition with your own family. What do you do for Easter?
