Pink Saturday hosted by my dearest friend Beverly at, How Sweet the Sound, is a day for all Pinkies to show their pink. I am proud to be a Pinkie and if you consider yourself to be a Pinkie too, visit Beverly's blog for Pink madness. You will have fun, I guarantee it personally.
Dear Beverly this poem is for you.
You're a springtime kind of person,
and there's sunshine in your smile.
There's warmth in all the gladness you impart.
And here's the special reason
you're so like this lovely season--
It's the springtime that you keep within your heart.
Happy Easter Happy Spring

Thank you so much for hosting Pink Saturday and for being my forever friend.

First the Easter banner on my halltree greeting you as you enter our home.
HAPPY EASTER
Remember these from last week?
These flowers had to be potted in these sweet flower pots.
The next photos show you what we used to create the centerpieces for my garden club tables.
The baskets we used to fill with candy for the centerpieces.
Some of the bunnies etc. used for the centerpieces.
These greetings were made with cards I found on google and copied.
FINALLY...

THE CENTERPIECE
I took this photo in my house when we set up the practice arrangement.
We decorated ten tables.
I didn't realize how wrinkled my table cloth was. I put it on the table just for this photo. Sigh!!!
Note: The club members enjoyed them so much they applauded . Another club member helped me and we were rewarded for our efforts. It was so delightful to have the fun of doing these centerieces.

A few more pics of my Easter decorations in our home.
We are in Florida for Easter so I didn't do much.
Just enough to make me smile. I hope you will too.
The yellow egg box is filled with chocolate eggs and it is a small gift for dear friends in Florida.
This mamma has her hands full.
An Easter greeting from this little chick and me.
Blessings and love,
JEANNE

I would never have noticed the wrinkled tablecloth if you hadn't mentioned it. I was too busy studying the pretty centerpiece. :)

Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Easter, my dearest friend. Gosh, girl. You made me cry. No joke. Really cry. Thank you for the kind words of this poem. You touched my heart, and you gave me words of which to aspire. I know your centerpieces were a big hit, and I smile thinking of the applause. It was well deserved.
I know you are having a great time with your family. Please give Christina a big hug from me. I wish I was with you sipping my cup of coffee this morning. It went to the high thirties last night, and it is feeling a bit chilly this morning.
Today we are on a mission of our "regular Saturday duties" plus a few additional duties so I'll be ready for tomorrow. Easter is my favorite of all holidays that we observe. It represents all that we have in faith and hope.

Awwww....what a wonderful poem you dedicated to your BFF!!! It made me tear up, too!
I love how your centerpieces turned out!! I'm sure your garden club ladies were very much impressed with your creative talents...I certainly am.
Your other Eastery touches around your home are perfect. I must adopt that decorating approach...just putting out enough stuff to make you smile! I haven't put a a thing....and Easter is tomorrow, right? Ruh..Roh...better get busy, huh? :)
How awesome that you will be with your family in FLA for the weekend. I know it will be a wonderful time for all of you!
Happy Easter, Jeanne. I hope the big bunny brings you lots of chocolate eggs!! :) L, Dana
