Easter - A Week Late

 I know that I am a week late talking about Easter.  What a wonderful day to celebrate our risen Savior!  In Sunday school I was asked to share some Easter memories and my mind immediately went to the Easter Sunrise services that were held at the park in Lonoke during all my growing up years.  The words, "Why seek ye the living among the dead?"  "He is not here. He is risen".  I have always known that these words were truth.  Because of Him we will live again!

So glad to have family with whom to enjoy this special day!  
I loved making the table look pretty. 
 And I even made a Bunny Cake.  Amazing what one will do for a grandchild! 
I think she liked it!
This is the only photo we got of Bella in her new dress.
Thought I'd share a few of  'Little Marilyn" 
Easter in Sicily in 1960

 I remember that dress and jacket.  We had a tailor make it for me and it was a really pale blue.  I loved it.  We were at the British Military Cemetery in Catania, Sicily in 1961.  
My mother is wearing a hat.  Unusual for her!
