Easter Dinner...

Happy Easter everyone.. 
So glad you dropped by the Blessed Hearth today.. 
This is just a small post of mostly pics of our Easter Dinner at Shonda's house.. 
We had a good day for travel to their home and enjoyed our drive down.. 
We were the last ones to arrive as usual.. smile.. 
Dinner was ready and everyone was hungry.. 


Ginger was happy to see so many visitors.. 
 The ham is ready and being sliced.. 
It was delicious and stuffed with apples.. 
I believe she found the recipe on Pinterest. 
Very good.. 

As always the table setting was lovely..

So bright and Spring like.. 
Love the colors.. 

And the meal was as good as it looks.. 
Ham, Scalloped Potatoes, Green Beans, Carrots, Broccoli Salad and an Easter Pasta Salad, rolls and pickles.. 
I am sorry I don't have pics but the desserts were awesome.. 
Strawberry Pie made by Sara ( a friend) and a Carrot Cake.. 
Coffee or Tea.. 
There were a few friends visiting, too.. 
Our sons and families could not be there so it was nice to visit with Dave's Mom and their friends.. 
After dinner we enjoyed some guitar playing.. 
smile.. 
Our grandsons are growing so fast and are such wonderful lads.. 
Grandpa and I are very proud of them and thankful that God has blessed us all so much.. 

Shonda liked her little gift of eggs that I made her.. 
She had the perfect spot for them in this centrepiece she had made for her dining table.. 
The sparkles really did finish them off.. 
An easy craft to make with styrofoam eggs, modge podge, napkins and sparkles.. 

Then after a simply lovely day we headed homeward again.. 
The snow is slowly leaving as you can see from the pics.. 
This is the little town where our oldest son lives but we live a bit farther on.. 
Herds of deer in the fields on the way.. 
So happy to see that they survived all the snow.. 
I expect there were a lot that didn't, though.. 

We met one running up the road but I didn't have my camera out then.. 
We have to be careful driving this time of year as they all come out to the fields to feed and are on the roads and even in the towns.. 

Tomorrow is Resurrection Sunday.. 
Such a blessed day as we celebrate our risen Savior.. 
What a price He paid for all of us.. 
So thankful to know Him... 

May God bless you all on this precious day of days...
