Easter Sunday Best

Here are a couple of pics from our very cold Easter morning. I love Easter morning, not for the Easter baskets, candy, egg hunts, or anything like that...but because everyone is dressed in their best. I remember growing up, planning for Easter morning was huge. We went to the fabric store, picked out a "smocking" pattern (I forget what they are called), fabric, and a dress pattern. My mom made our dresses and then we shopped for accessories...everything from a new slip and panties, gloves, hats, purses, white shoes, socks (or hose, depending on when Easter fell). What fun memories. And I still can remember alot of my Easter's by my dress. Now I love to shop for my children. It's really the only time I tend to splurge on a whole entire outfit. But they're only young once, right?


(Addie had the cutest pair of white sandals to wear, but because it was sooo cold, we had to resort to her black ones. Too bad, but still cute!)
