Tuesday Morning Tellings....

Good Morning Everyone....we had such a nice Easter Sunday....when we went out to the garden Sunday morning we were greeted by this  Iris....isn't it BEAUTIFUL....I snapped the picture first thing so I could always have the memory of this first bloom...then it was on to the rest of our Easter preparations...there was a table cloth for the table...with the umbrella to create some shade...watering to do and the inside to tend to....I am blessed to say the Lord gave me strength to do all these things (with my sweeties help of course)...almost everything was done when the fam arrived
The weather was stellar...clear..warm...a bit breezy...FABULOUS...my niece came and got a blanket from me to lay on the grass for egg coloring....everyone participated (almost)....these are some of the treasures they created...it made me so happy to see these colorful works of "egg art"...our little M who just turned 5 led the festivities with joy and wonder....
Aren't they pretty....
We all gathered around the table at dinner to eat ham....roasted potatoes....Italian green beans...salad...and rolls...it was delicious...thank you to my daughter and her sweetie for preparing the food...I took it easy....only needed to cook the string beans ....dinner was great...the day was long ...we even had time for a fire in the outdoor fireplace...when all was said and done even the squirrels had a good time...I hope your Easter was equally fabulous ....I have to take on my day...but before I go thank you for stopping by....till next time ....blessings and big hugs...Karena
