Pink Saturday Easter Pretties and Flowers

Hello everyone! I have not been doing PINK Saturday as much
lately because I don't have much left to show you.
But this week I have some left over Easter PINKS and Flowers to
share with you.
But first I must thank Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for hosting
this every week.
Thank you Beverly!
At church we have secret sisters and in January
we drew new names.
On Palm Sunday I found this PINK present
waiting for me.
Let's look inside, shall we?
Oooh, pretty. An egg tin with PINK on it.
There truffles in there.
Yes I have eaten them all myself already.
There were only 4.
But were sure yummy!
The egg is sitting on a box.
This angel was inside that box.
My collection of angels is slowly growing.
I just love the PINK on this one!
Here they are together in front of the PINK bag.
This next item is not PINK.
But I had to share as well.
It is another gift from my secret sister
that was waiting for me at the Easter Vigil service.
A cross and a book of promises of God.
Here is a close up of the cross.
I already having it hanging with my other crosses
that I shared once for a Three or More post.
I made this wreath years ago.
I still love it.
See the PINK eggs on it.
I had to hot glue a few eggs that had fallen off.
I painted this years ago too.
Two of the wheels had come off
so I had to hot glue those back on as well.
It is PINK on it.
The bunny has PINK flowers
and a PINK nose.
PINK ribbon to act as reins.
PINK azaleas blooming at church.
I was playing with the macro setting on my camera.
I discovered why sometimes I get
blurry pictures on the macro setting.
Using the zoom on the macro setting
makes for blurry pictures.

Note to self:
Don't use the zoom
on the macro setting....

Here is some playing with the macro setting.
This batch includes a PINK Camellia.

And now I just have to share with you again
this picture of my cute daughter
when she was 3 months old.
She is dressed in PINK!!
She just had her 25th birthday on the 15th!
I can't believe she is a grown up adult at 25 years old!!
Like I keep saying...
time keeps flying out the window.
For me anyway.

Happy PINK Saturday everyone!!

I had no idea how talented you really are. That painted Easter rabbit and carriage is absolutely precious. I tried to learn to paint...even took lessons. I love that style of painting, but alas I just could NOT master it. Oh, and your baby girl, dressed in pink, is just a piece of heaven on earth.
She's precious!!!

Great goodies you're sharing! Don't you just ♥ Pink Saturday? This is the one day that I get to totally indulge myself, get all girlie, drink tea with cream, and share time with friends on the internet. Your blog post this week was wonderful...as usual!

Went out to dinner with friends, so I'm a little late, but better late than never, right? I wish you a Sunday filled with family, l♥ve, sunshine and peace.

You could show your daughter every week. She's adorable!

Man was I cute when I was little! I love the new angel you got. I'll have to see what I can do to add to your collection...hmmmm. I've always loved the toll paint rabbit! And I remember that Easter Wreath. I think I remember when we first got it kinda, although I could be crazy. Love you!
