We celebrated Easter on Palm Sunday this year. Our sons and their families are celebrating with their other grandparents on Easter but thankfully they were able to be with us last Sunday. Easter is our Christian celebration of the resurrection of our Lord & Savior, and truly is celebrated by us with thanksgiving and praise all year long.
Our home is very small , but the size does not limit us to sharing meals with those we love and care about. We just bring out the portable buffet table and set it up in the living room.
I set the table with the china my Aunt Ruby and cousin Christine gave me. It was Aunt Ruby's china for many years. She celebrated her 100th birthday in 2017.Ruby's daughter Christine threw an amazing party for her mother, and Aunt Ruby had all her "faculties" and was able to visit with her many loved ones and friends. ( Aunt Ruby has since passed on into eternity and I remember her as a very special blessing in my life.)
The china pattern is Spode's "Rosebud Chintz" from Copeland, England . I have the teapot and gravy boat too !
There were only 5 grandkids here for this year's Easter egg hunt.My husband hid the eggs all over our front pasture. I suspect the older children in this picture won't be hunting for Easter eggs much longer, but the youngest little guy in the picture, our youngest grandchild, has a blast hunting for Easter eggs. ( When did our grandchildren grow up so fast ?)
Easter Eggs !

Aunt Ruby's china is special because it came from her but also because it is so charming. Thank you for sharing and Happy Easter. The little lambs you make are so lovely!!
Blessed Easter to you xxoo. Nice China as it is Special. That is kind of Aunt Ruby to give you the setting. In her heart she knew you would continue to use it faithfully.
Those were big eggs on the Easter hunt for the children. Yummy.
I love Easter and it looks like you had a glorious celebration. Love those dishes handed down to you. So pretty!
