Easter photo shoot

Hi Everyone

 Happy Tuesday

♥

This morning the house is filled 

with beauty for a Easter photo shoot
it is so fun to decorate for Easter

 So happy these vintage white ironstone butter pats
are featured
To show you how small they are they were placed

 next to freshly fallen rose petals and freesias

The mantel with a vintage
robins egg blue Easter basket filled with
white freesias and night blooming jasmine from the garden
notice there are no traditional tulips or Lilies

{Love}
the combination of freesias and jasmine
 very delicate and smells amazing

The vintage blue dust broom
looks right at home on the mantel too

A peek at the front door
a simple vintage galvanized watering can
 filled with garden flowers
hanging on the door
 the perfect welcome for family and friends

{Love}
to decorate with vintage especially
at Easter

Easter Memory

Hi Everyone

 Happy Saturday

♥

These beautiful hydrangeas
remind me so much of the
 miracle of God's promise 

Every January we literally chop our hydrangea bushes
 to the ground and every year I worry will they grow back.....
  They always do grow back

 more robust and beautiful then the year before
Such a testament to trusting in
 God 

At Easter I am reminded of the year

 we had our children photographed at Olan Mills

Our sweet daughter was wearing a vintage pink dress

 that I wore for Easter when I was her age

{My Mom saved everything}

and our son is of coarse pictured holding

 a Easter egg that he held like a baseball

{Love}

The picture is adorable but the story behind this picture always touches my heart

Our daughter is such a loving soul and has always been very protective of her brother 

The photographers sat them down together next to the flowers

 and then brought in the bunnies for the shot

putting the bunnies on each of their laps

  our son got a bad bunny that just did not want to be photographed 

We were all trying to help assist and console when 

Our daughter without even being asked went and grabbed an Easter egg decoration

 and handed it to her brother

She then sat down in front of the seat to protect him from the bunny 

 so the photographer could get the shot....

 the smiles on their faces tell such a story

Wish I could remember why our son is not wearing shoes!!!
