Easter


Our Easter celebration was nice, we had our pastor and wife and our dear friends J. D. and Jackie over for dinner. We made home made bread and Acelia made this cute snail! I thought she did a great job!!

She also frosted the cake and added some green coconut :) You can't see in the picture, but the frosting was pink.

Here is the finished product. Thank you Kelli for sharing the recipe with us.


Acelia and Jackie:)


J.D. was gracious enough to carve the ham for us. :)


Scalloped potatoes hot from the oven. I topped these off with fried onion rings :)

I really wanted to do a spinach salad but spinach was 3.99 a bag !!! So I opted for the good old tossed salad with mandarin oranges, kumquats, and toasted almonds. I did make Kelli's dressing and everyone loved it. Thanks again Kelli. :)
Acelia trying out Jackie's "Happy Feet". I guess they work, she looks pretty happy! :)

We had a great time chatting, and visiting with our friends. We missed my mom as she is vacationing in the sunny south. :) I hope she brings some of that warm weather home with her!

Acelia is learning to crochet with a tiny needle so she is practicing making a chain.

Have a great day!
