HIPPITY HOPPITY EASTER'S ON IT'S WAY

WOW, WHERE DOES TIME GO???
Just the other day it was a cold and rainy March day
and the month went out as a lion rather than a lamb.
I flipped the calendar to April and VOILA,
it became sunny and warm (a fluke by the way)....
but hold on...EASTER is in a few days!!!
WHAT???
I'm still in winter mode.
How am I going to shift gears
and get ready to celebrate Easter so quickly?
Here's a few ideas I thought of to achieve
that special holiday feeling.
Now, I just need to take my own advice
and go implement them.
Does anyone know where I can get
a bunny rather quickly?????

Ok, these chocolate ones will work

I'll have to dye eggs for the Easter Bunny

Oh right, I need to put my wheel barrow out in the living room

There's a cute little guy, but he probably eats too much

I'll do these napkin rings instead

Hang a few ornaments on my tree inside...tree inside?

...and put a tree inside

and spread out all these cute eggs everywhere

I'll put some daffodils

and some sweet smelling hyacinths

in some springtime containers

Oh, look another rabbit

Actually, that chick might work, instead!!

I must get some springtime flowers

and put them around the house

Do I have time to create these cute little egg cup table favors?

I can only pray I do

Wish me luck getting all this done!
I hope you're ready for the Easter Bunny
to come to your house.
If not, we've got work to do.
Chop Chop
We've got to go rabbit and chick shopping!
Do you think Pottery Barn might have them?

My wishes to all of you for a
Blessed and Happy Easter

SIGNS OF HOPE...SPRING IS IN THE AIR

Today is the FIRST day of SPRING!!!!
YAY!!!
I hope we are finished with the snow,
it was a rough winter
This sweet little crocus plant emerging from the snow is a sure sign
of hope that warm Spring days are upon us

Time to start planting your bulbs

Forsythia, one of the first Spring plants to paint the landscape...

YELLOW... just like the daffodils

Grape Hyacinthsclustered

in pretty containers

inside your home early in the season

and outside as soon as the first warms days come

Hyacinths with their soft and sweet fragrance

evoking the feeling of springtime and Easter

Delicate, tiny violets

carpeting the landscape

along with their larger counterpart... the Pansy

The delicate bell-like Lilly of Valley

with it's fresh, crisp, white color and clean aroma

Are you getting excited for those warm Spring days with
gentle breezes, sunshine and all of
those fragrant blossoms
waiting to emerge in the next days and weeks to come?
I'm off to grab my sunglasses now!
