Easter Bunnies, Chicks, Decorations and Family


  
Welcome to our Easter Sunday and my sister and brother in-laws chic pad!
I am so blessed by them. They take it upon themselves to hold all our special holidays, birthdays, a couple weddings and wedding receptions at their beautiful home. They have been blessed with the ability to decorate it and make it so warm and cozy for all their family and friends to enjoy. I thank The Lord for them everyday and for them being blessed with the gift of Hospitality. 

My brother in-law and sister are very gracious hosts. They go through all the time and effort to make our children, grandchildren and extended family have the best memories of the day but yet, I am sure they get very little thank yous. I know they aren't doing it for the thank yous but sometimes thank you and a little help without being asked goes along way. Do you have family who go out of their way to make a holiday special for you? If you do, remember that God calls us to be servants not to be served. Ask if you can help in any way and send a hand written thank you card expressing your thankfulness and how much they mean to you. 

Anyway I'm off the soap box and on to what I wanted to show you!!

This is what my sister and brother in-law did for the grand kids!! It is over the top cute!! 

Isn't this a cute place setting! I love the color scheme and the chickie theme.

Here's my Ollie Dollie playing with a lil' dollie in amongst all the Easter baskets that were were filled with all the Easter goodies a child could want! We had nine kids ranging from two months old to fourteen years old. 

We had two Easter Egg Hunts, one for the big kids and then one for the itty bitty kids. My mom was flabbergasted at how the itty bitties knew what to do.

 My Ollie Dollie just wanted to get as many eggies in her arms as she could carry.



Oh oh getting off the track!

Here is the the decor in the foyer. 



    
                                     

  The foyer decor was my favorite!


The dinning table, which is about 12 feet to 16 feet long, was decorated with all sorts of bunnies, eggs, plants, and cloches. It was absolutely darling.







When it was time to eat, my sister and brother in-law serve up scrumptious food! Sorry I was so into eating I didn't take any pictures.

All around the house there were many little lovely vignettes that just added to this delightful holiday!








Now for the outside!! It turned out to be a lovely Easter Sunday. The sun was shining with puffy clouds and all!

My Sissy put ribbons on an old umbrella and it was so fun. There was a breeze that would blow the ribbons. It was so cool looking. The kids thought it was so awesome!

Here is my Ollie Dollies Easter Basket! You can see some of the things she got here.


And here are the mamma's and the kiddies going through their huge Easter baskets. 


My Ollie Dollie was flabbergasted by all the wonderful gifts she was blessed with. 

After all the festivities we took a few pictures for memories.

Here is my Sissy, her daughter and granddaughter, Pretty Pretty.

The itty bitties had a lot of fun on the little jungle Jim.





Nana loved to play with her great grand kids.




My son in-law dedicated Pretty Pretty to The Lord and prayed for her parents. It was so sweet.



How do you celebrate Easter? 
Do you have Easter Baskets and Easter Hunts?
Do you decorate you home? 
Do you share what Easter is really all about to family and/or friends? 


Ollie Dollie and I would love to hear from you! 
We pray your day was as awesome as ours was.

Love in Christ,

Honey
