Here you will always find the American flag

waving and the American eagle flying.

Stay out of trouble! Don't let them

fool ya ........






This year, Easter Sunday falls on April 5.
 
The most important feast in the Christian calendar, Easter

 celebrates the resurrection of Christ after his Crucifixion.

Easter was probably the earliest of the church’s annual

 festivals and was fused with elements of pagan spring

 festivals celebrating new life.

Folk customs attached to the festival date from

 pre-Christian times. Eggs symbolize new life and the Easter

 Bunny recalls the hare, the Egyptian symbol of fertility.

The 4th month of the year

is an outstanding one

According to early Roman calendar, April was the second month

 but became fourth when they started to use January as the first

 month. The name originally came from Aprilis, meaning 'to open'.

 In April, small animals that were hibernating usually come out

 and the birds fly back northward to settle, bees and butterflies

 begin to gather nectar. In some parts of the world, April is

 planting time but in other parts, it's the harvest season. Because

 of the nice warm weather of April, amateur athletes begin to go

 outside while the professional baseball begins. People usually do

 huge spring cleaning and mowing. The first day of April begins

 with April fool's day.

 

The birthstone for April is the diamond. 

 The birth flower of April is typically the Sweet Pea or the Daisy.

For you "Star Wars" fans











Well, the last sale appears to have cost

$2.30 ... one would wonder what all they

bought with that amount?

 Today, not much I'm afraid.






Oh my. Do you suppose these

chairs were comfortable?
















Love all the colors! Very cheery. The cushion

and throw and pillow sure dressed up this

wicker chair.





A neat ole country porch complete with

the kitties and old lantern. Can't help but

admire the screen door design.








A very neat photo for sure. Love her bonnet.





This setting would remind anyone of possibly

a grandparents yard. Love that little wagon

and of course the quilt is wonderful.





Someone spent some time on these eggs.

Simply very, very pretty and colorful.





Now what child or adult would not like this

half of a chocolate egg filled with goodies

and bunnies being funny.





Such a clever bed for that guy who

loves old pick-ups.










Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your

balance, you must keep moving.

You took the time, thank you!

What a wonderful feeling

this can be!
