Tomorrow is Easter and as a child I always loved it. I grew up with a huge backyard....best in the neighborhood....and every Easter I would gather eggs that had been hidden in the flower beds, trees, and bushes. I loved the hours we spent coloring the eggs, remember those wax crayon we used to use to write on the uncolored eggs and like magic the words appeared after the eggs were colored. When all the eggs were collected in my little basket, I'm sure we had a scrumptious Easter Dinner.
Of course the tradition of coloring eggs carried on with my own children, but cupcake decorating was added. The pictures above are from 1983 with Lynette's kids....aren't they innocent and adorable!
Enjoy the day! On Tasty Tuesday I'll share my grandma's recipe for Easter Egg Bread.
More than Easter bunnies,
And chocolate eggs galore,
Is the cross of Calvary
The sacrifice of our Lord
For Jesus is the reason,
We all can celebrate.
And come to Him to freely,
receive His love and saving Grace.
