Saturday's car show...

so we couldn't get me close to the cars in the wheel chair...

but I got these pics from the sidelines...

did ok yesterday...
not sore at all...

but I can feel it this morning...

I like car shows...

we have a winner...

our town's Easter Egg Hunt was at noon on Saturday...

and it was a beautiful day for it!

there's Eli with his dad, Mark...

I think he has the hang of it this year...

they put candy in the eggs...
you get your candy out and give the eggs back and they reuse them every year...

and in a few of them, they put this...

that means you get to pick out a basket from the Easter Bunny...
Eli picked the cow one...
it had a Frisbee, a chocolate bunny and inside the box was a gift certificate...
free pizza slice from Casey's General Store...
he was happy...

and  you get your picture taken with the Easter Bunny for the town newspaper!
funny story about that photo...
our newspaper editor/owner was up there to get photos...
and both her batteries were dead...
frantic, she searched the crowd...
saw me and yelled, "I need you!"
so, I got the photo for her...
offered her my camera to finish out the activities...
she said no, that she had another camera with different batteries down in the office and was going to run after that one...
but would have missed this photo...
so I took it and sent it to her in an email...
:O)
what a morning...
we got up and did the cooking for dinner...
and then uptown for this fun time...
saw the car show and back home to eat...
Doug and Paula brought me an Easter Lily...
and its so pretty...
I finally got my nap in at 7pm that day...
car show photos tomorrow...
and then more later on in the week of the rest of it...
:O)
hope you had a fun weekend...

and could I get prayers for my cousins and their families?
my aunt Marie crossed over Jordan Saturday night...
and she went so easy...
:O)
just imagine your first 24 hours in Heaven is on Easter!
what a party that must have been!
aunt Marie was the sweetest soul...
I haven't heard of the arrangements yet, so just pray them through the week...
:O)

Have a great Monday...
I am cleaning here after the weekend...
laundry...
and napping...
plenty of napping...

T time...

going to be a busy couple of days...

so I will leave you with these...

got much to do and things to see...

I may not be around until Sunday...

I have no idea what these are, cannot remember, but I didn't plant them...

Easter dinner is set for Saturday at 3pm...

Easter egg hunt and car show up town first...

tomorrow, we need to go shopping...
but that might just end up being DH going...
he can do it faster without me anyway...
made one too many trips to the bathroom this afternoon...
but...
I did find a sink full of morel mushrooms this evening...
;o)
have a blessed weekend...

semi busy day...

it didn't start out very productive...
really slept in this morning...
but by the time I got moving, the sun was really warm...

I worked out here for an hour or so...
and then road around the yard on the mower picking up sticks and running the dogs around...

for all the rain we got, its still bone dry!

all of this just so we don't have to move this old glider when we mow...
I need more bricks or pavers...
but that will happen soon enough...

peonies have tiny little buds on them!

and so that's the day's improvement...

found some wild strawberries on the very north edge of the yard...
this is the second siting in 4 days of a bunch of lady bugs...

maple trees are leaving out and making helicopters...

autumn clematis...

weeds, flowers, weeds, tree, weeds, bike, weeds...

lily of the valley liked the rain...

so much more to do, but we have all summer to finish it!
