I love Spring with all of it’s fresh and colorful decorations that speak of new life . . . new beginnings . . .
. . . new purchases?
Yes, I splurged and bought a little something new to enhance my Easter decor. This was a total impulse buy but really, how could I help myself when I saw THIS little guy over at Little Brags?
Isn’t he the most darling Easter bunny you’ve ever seen?
But no, I didn’t go out and buy myself a real bunny but I found something almost as adorable.
How could I resist right? I found this little guy at Drees, one of our local Olympia stores. I’m on their mailing list and when I received their Easter email and saw a picture of their very real looking bunnies I was smitten.
And then, how could I let him sit in his Easter basket all alone? You’re right, I simply couldn’t!
So I bought him a couple of little chicks to keep him company.
Drees had several different styles of these hand sewn bunnies to choose from and I had a very difficult time making a choice. Black tails, lops, jack rabbits, pure white bunnies . . . hmmm . . . I wonder if they’ll be on sale after Easter?
So that’s my big splurge! Thank you Christine for the inspiration. Mr. OTN thanks you too (wink, wink)!
Remembering Good Friday today and The Cross. A sad day to recall but we know the outcome as death is swallowed up in victory!

Your handmade bunnie resembles our Resident Bunny,
“Pee Wee”, that lives in On Crooked Creektt’s Gardens!
We have watched over “Pee Wee” since his mother left him into our care.
I do belive he lived under the deck near one of the furnace outlets
during this never ending Winter here on the Prairie.
“Mr. Ed” leaves feed for him near the ground everyday.
Thank you for the gentle reminder of today’s signifiance.
I’ll be joining the members of two combined Choirs for
Lament of the Cross tonight at our Good Friday services.
Have a Blessed Easter, dear friend!!!
Fondly,
Pat
