Garden Beauty

These images of outdoor gardens reveal a number of wonderful pieces that truly represent what I think is so beautiful, bringing a little 'indoor', 'outdoor' in some cases, and in others there are period pieces; unique and elegant in their own special way. 

If I could create a single short sequence that really reflects what appeals to me most in this arena; this would be it!

Easter, Happy

“May your life be a reflection of the resurrected Christ”

His Birth, Life, Execution, Resurrection = our Redemption…

(It’s a free gift)

And, not to forget some less deep, less somber interpretations (though not insignificant;  we most all have visions and memories of the Easter Bunny and an Easter Egg Hunt or two, and I just love little bunnies : )

Bunny, Welcome

Bunny, Sweater

Bunny, Pots

“And this little bunny went to market…”Bunny, Sister

(My little sister Angela adorned this fun Easter Bunny costume to help spread cheer and joy around town today : )

Happy Easter to all my Lovely Blogger Friends!
