Easter & Lisa Kudrow Lyrics

The laughing-est family evening ever for Easter.






We drove to see my brothers and parents. One of my nieces in particular was the creator of some jolly time! My SIL is learning to play the guitar and she strummed for us first.. then the niece took over the guitar and added singing to the mix. Put her on stage and she can be a giggling, entertaining, raucous-laughing show!












Spring was present! Loved my SIL's flowers. My brother's pride-and-joy garden...







gift to the fam

With my "memory-garden" in mind, I thought to dig-up and divide iris from my yard. These particular bearded iris are from the garden of my Aunt Lorraine who passed years ago. Each spring I'm reminded of her when these beauties bloom. So, everyone was given a bag with a couple of rhizomes to place our Aunt's diligent work in each of their gardens... thus extending the spaces that memories will be evoked!


No egg hunt,  but I had dyed some at home just to place out for me to admire their color!





Lisa Kudrow will never know how many giddy-goat moments she inspired! "Smelly Cat" while not a traditional Easter hymn was the perfect touch to our Easter!






LAUGHTER!!!  good for the soul....

Growing

*ADDITIONS MADE!*

Don't you just love when someone has something great happen in their life? When it brings you such joy too... when it makes you so proud of them. My niece has been taking photography classes for a couple of years.  There have been a few exhibits of art, with hers included, that we've attended.  I'm always so excited to see what she has created. I love to scan the room and find just the right spot on the wall where her beautiful pieces hang.
To stand before them and gaze, and think.. "now how did she do that?" or "where do her ideas come from?".
Always, I ponder how in the world she grew up so quickly. Long ago she used to say that she wanted to be like me. I wonder if she still wishes this?  Truthfully, I hope not! She is standing in a place that she's found all on her own... with guidance from her parents and "a village".  Her talent is true. As the years unfold possibly we will get ever bigger glimpses into her artistic dreams. Following along on her coattails is what I intend to do.

Christie has now been named in a publication. Two pieces of her art are shown along with others from her college. A small piece of print, but no less important because of it's size. It is there in black and white - she has made it! She has made art! She has made an Aunt very proud!

Cool, huh????!
