    So glad your Easter was beautiful and meaningful! (And I just can’t even take the adorable-ness of that red sweatshirt picture!)

    I just clicked over from Ann’s Multitude Monday, takes a while to get through them. And your pictures first of all – they breathe Easter and family and togetherness – and a mom who takes notice of moments. And from your list my favorite one this week is – well a toss up between the resurrection rolls and the cake balls – I’m hungry – I covet them:) This was a joy to read – thank you – and God Bless and keep you and all of yours this day.
