Easter is usually a very fun holiday at our house. Everyone gathers together to see one another, share stories and our favorite foods, engage in a few competitive games and just enjoy the wonderful spring weather.

Just knowing that we are all going to be hunkered down in our own homes this year makes me sad, but we also want everyone to be safe. My kids had a great chat using Zoom the other night, it makes a momma’s heart happy to know that all her children are laughing and giggling as they visit with one another. Some of us “old people” are going to have to learn how to take better advantage of technology to stay close to our families.

Touches of spring and Easter decorations around the house make me feel better. I also love that spring flowers are starting to bloom outside. I even mowed the yard last week – love that smell.

Decorating for Easter means getting out the traditional bunnies we have had for years and adding a few new ones. Here are a few of my favorites:

Happy Easter to you and yours! Have a safe and healthy holiday!

It is fun to gather up traditional Easter decorations, spring flowers, grass, eggs and ivy and create vignettes throughout the house to welcome spring.
