EASTER

We had such a nice day on Easter Sunday. The weather was beautiful and the food was delicious and the company was superb!

My sister Mary Jo and her family came, and Christine and Brad and the boys. We had an Easter egg hunt while we were waiting for the food to finish cooking. We ate Honey Baked Ham, Lawrey's potatoes as my family calls them, green bean casserole and carrots from our garden last year that we picked a few weeks ago. Mary Jo made a wonderful strawberry shortcake dessert to top it off with.

I always do Easter baskets for all my children and grandchildren. Carter had found this lamb at Target when he was with Christine. When they went to leave and she made him put it back he was so very sad, so she suggested that I get it for him and put it in his Easter basket. When he saw it he got the cutest look on his face. He looked like he couldn't figure out how that lamb got here at Grandma's house. Then throughout the evening he must have asked my five times if he could have it and if he could take it home. It was sooooo cute!

The whole day was just a relaxing, good food, fun time. My Mom was ill and my Dad stopped by to visit and pick up some food for them. We missed having them with us and the rest of my family who had other plans. We just had the best time being together, playing a game, and laughing together. (Even Griffin our dog loved egg hunting.)
