Have a Wonderful 2011 Easter!

Easter is a wonderful time to be with those you love. I am looking forward to being in church this Sunday with my entire family. Next Easter, we will have a new addition to our family as my son Aaron and his "to be" wife are blessed with a baby girl in May.

This year following our service at Life, we will have Sunday dinner with our family here in Deer Park. We all bring a covered dish. This year I will bring my salad with varieties of lettuce, fruits, feta cheese, candied almonds and a home made citrus vinaigrette.

We had a wonderful turn out and Sam and Aaron were showered with many gifts needed for the soon to arrive, baby Abbey. Thanks to all who attended and contributed. Special thanks to Laurie, Shelley, Dianne & Valerie for helping prepare the food. Mom, for your beautiful pink china, Linda, for the gorgeous rose arrangements, and Shelley for your special silverware.

I think using beautiful dishes, fresh flowers and good food makes a party a special one to remember. I think everyone had a great time.
