Easter Weekend Snaps

Here's an iPhone photo purge...

found these cute PJ's at Carters, my 2 favorites bunnies and watermelon

I'm so proud of my carrot cake!

I will upload my camera tonight so I can share the adorable Easter ball hunt photos.

(We call Easter eggs 'balls' apparently)

Dog and Ball are our favorite words these days.

Cheers to a great week!

Good Friday

Resurrection weekend is upon us.

Sharing my favorites of the season...

1 Peter  3:18

For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.  He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit

source

John 1:29

Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world

Hebrews 12:2
fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Have to share one extra this Good Friday...

I hope everyone enjoys a blessed and joyous Easter weekend.

Easter Supper

How is it Thursday already
Finally making my shopping list for our Easter Supper

Since P has come around I am all about better establishing our family traditions.

This Easter is the first in maybe 10 years that the Mr. will be home.

Last year we woke poor P up around 5:30 to give for the Easter Bunny reveal before the Mr. left for work.

This year I am SO excited to attend church together.

Go home and pick up big brother, Hendrix, and head out to my parents.

We will hopefully enjoy some nice weather. 

Maybe hide a few eggs in the yard.

And have family supper.

This year's menu according to me.

{my Dad likes to go overboard and throw a few things in at the last minute}

Deviled Eggs

wouldn't be Easter without them

Honey Baked Ham

Green Bean Casserole and Glazed Carrots

Rosemary Scalloped Potatoes

Made this a few years ago and huge success
Going to try my luck again.

Carrot Cake

Saw recipe on North Carolina Charm last month and been dying to try it out.

What is on your supper table this weekend?

Cheers,
RW

Monday Randoms

We had a fun, productive little weekend.

Sadly I didn't get in a many photos.

Just this adorable gem from our wild Saturday night at Whole Foods.

Had a new wine, Blake Ink, great affordable red blend.

Just picked it up at Whole Foods because it was on a display and we had to keep the Taxi moving.

We enjoyed the whole bottle last night.

Why do people forget how to drive when it rains.

Is it just coincidence that it is so hard to wake up when the rain makes that sleepy noise on the roof...

and then you get hit with that crazy traffic while running late.

I managed to get all my summer clothes out and winter put away over the spring cold snap.

Regardless I layered my summer clothes because I refused to drag winter back out.

How is it almost April?!?

I hate how time is flying.

Looking forward to a busy week with Church services,

dying eggs, egg hunts, and a breakfast with the bunny!

Cheers to a productive week!
