EASTER AT MARKET AND A DOUBLE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

Before Easter market day started off with sunny warm temps but the wind is picking up pretty quickly this morning.
We got chores done and made it to market a few minutes early but there were no customers there yet to notice.
Daughter and IR came in right after we got set up.
The market looked very festive today with balloons marking all the Easter baskets filled with goodies for our customers.

We had our table all decorated and IR was loving the balloons !!!

Daughter and IR left to get down to her in-laws for their Easter celebration.Hubbie left to get home and get some yard work done in this nice weather.

I had a very good sales day and am very thankful for the business the Lord sent my way today.

I made a stop at Ingles on the way home to pick up things for tomorrow's Easter lunch.

Hubbie helped me get things put away when I got home and I wrapped birthday presents and got things loaded up for the double birthday party this evening. We did chores early and headed over to Aa's house to celebrate EL, who turns 5 years old today and AD, who turns 7 years old tomorrow.

There was plenty of good food and fun at the party.

AD wanted me to make her a chocolate lovers cake like I sell and EL wanted a vanilla with cherries cake that her mom made.

RL loves these girls and wants to be a part of everything they do.

There was also plenty present to open for the two of them.

We came home at 8:00 and shut the chickens up and then started getting the food ready for tomorrow's lunch. I made the 7 layer salad and deviled eggs tonight and put the large ham in the crock pot to cook all night.

We watched the news of the latest winter storm as we have made it all the way to the V this year with Violet.

We are not predicted to get anything but some cooler air from this storm about mid week but it will make it feel like winter is still with us for at least another night or two in the 30's !!

Well March came in like a cool rainy, windy lion and is going out with a nice warm sunny but windy lamb. This March has been a cool one with more winter weather this month than we had in February. We have had snow, rain, cold and it has definitely lived up to it's reputation for the March winds this year.
We celebrated 4 birthdays this month , began day light savings time and the Spring season.
#2 son and Tif moved into their new home , daughter, Tif  and I went to an antique show at the Ag Center and g-son began his spring soccer season with a couple victories so far.
I hatched my first batch of chicks this month and watched the first pretty colored flowers of early spring come and go.
It has been a quickly passing month as they all seem to be at this point in my life. Each day is filled with new excitement and fun and we are doing our best to live it to the best of our abilities.
Thankful for the love of Jesus Christ tonight and looking forward to celebrating His resurrection tomorrow with my church family.
God Bless and Good Night.
