Well, this Sunday is Easter already!

My husband and I prefer Resurrection Sunday :)

Just thought I'd share a few of our decorations with you...

We went to the Dollar Tree and found these cute glitter eggs.

Bri and I put ribbons on them and hung them from

our white valance in the living room.

These decorations below have been

around since my kids were "littles".

They loved to decorate this little tree :)

I got the cross below at the Dollar Tree a

couple of years ago, it's one of my favorites.

My son Brad put this together several

years ago, and it hangs in a special place in the

living room.

I found the egg holders and eggs below at the Cracker Barrel.

I found the little Happy Easter sign at Home Goods this year.

These are "oldies" too :)

I hope you have a blessed Resurrection Day, remembering

that He is Risen!

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matt. 28:6

*************************************************

Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Romans 8:34

Spring Centerpieces and Easter Gardens

You can also insert easter grass in the bottom in whatever
color you want to highlight. That would also take
up some of the space and you wouldn't need so many
eggs.

You could use plastic eggs for this -they used real...

If you want a true focus on the meaning of Easter, then these gardens may
be just the idea you are looking for!

*Just remember to keep the garden in a warm location with lots of sunlight and give
 it plenty of water every day.

Enjoy your Easter!
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the 
place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:6 

I received a Christmas card from a dear friend with the verses to this hymn.

Thought I would share it with you as you contemplate the Greatest Gift ever given!

Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown,
When Thou camest to earth for me;
But in Bethlehem’s home was there found no room
For Thy holy nativity.

Oh, come to my heart, Lord Jesus:
There is room in my heart for Thee.

Thou camest, O Lord, with the living Word,
That should set Thy people free;
But with mocking scorn and with crown of thorn,
They bore Thee to Calvary.

When the heav’ns arches shall ring,
 and her choirs shall sing,
At Thy coming to victory,
Let Thy voice call me home, saying “Yet there is room,
There is room at My side for thee.”

My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus,
When Thou comest and callest for me.                            by  Emily E.S. Elliott
