Easter

Spent Easter with mom at my sisters home.   Beautiful day and pretty azaleas blooming in her yard.   
Mom had a wonderful time and ate a great meal with us.

pulling into drive we are greeted by some fire red azaleas


Fountain was running with the sound of water trickling

Pretty white azaleas in front yard 


Inside on the table in the kitchen were these beautiful Dianthus that Amy and Jeremy brought her mom.

In the distance from the patio are more blooming azaleas 

Quite a few crepe myrtles planted and trimmed

Fun was had by all

Before we came to my sister's home,  I dropped by my grand childrens home to drop off some Easter goodies and they had just gotten back from church and dressed so pretty in their Easter dresses.

What a lovely celebration you all enjoyed, Betsy. You are so fortunate to have your Mom. I think I miss my parents the most at holidays. Your grands look adorable dressed for Easter. Your sister's azaleas are beautiful. It's a lovely time of year! Have a nice afternoon. ♥

Betsy, what a beautiful Easter day. Mom looks so contented munching on that good food. What a beautiful setting for your sister's home. Love the stone on the house too. Those are two of the cutest little girls around. Pretty names for them too..Have a great weekend..Judy

What a wonderful Easter you had with family... Your Mom I'm sure was SO happy to be with her family... Dinner looked so good ---and I love all of those Azaleas. I have always wanted one of the red ones--but we don't have one of them. We have pink ones and lavender ones...

Hugs,
Betsy

Oh what a nice time you must have had! The azalea's are gorgeous, the food looked yummy and you had great weather! So nice! I was glad you ended your post with a pic of the cutie pie grandgirls, they are so darling!
I wanted to tell you Betsy, since you are my most faithful follower, that I have decided to stop blogging. I will be visiting my blogging faithfuls though, and that includes you! So I won't be gone all together. :)
Have a great rest of your week!
