Face it Honey, The Maid ain't coming! DAY 3 morning

Yesterday down, but I had a beautiful day!

Today, we got everyone up, off to work/school and went to the church to replace the Palm Sunday arrangement, which was so easy!
Supplies
Sago palm branches stuck in an oasis filled urn
greenery to hide the oasis
All from the church yard
COST $0

For Thursday and Good Friday we replaced the palms at the foot of the cross with thorned branches and a bare wisteria vine that loosely wrapped the cross along with a black drape and a bare grapevine crown. This is one of my favorites. Not for its beauty, but for how well it expresses the message. This is the third year we have done this in some form and it continues to move me.
Supplies
bare thorned branches
bare wisteria vine
grapevine wreath
loose unfinished black fabric
All out of the yard or the church already had.
COST $0

I walked home from the church, but first stopped to check in on our friends the Hintons who own the local Bakery. It was so wonderful to visit with them. It has been awhile, and their delicious bakery/deli is not a bad place to stop!!!!
We get so busy that days can go by without zeroing in and enjoying the gifts God has blessed us with. Friends are gifts AND blessings. If you are like me, we need to work on spending more time with them.

Started a load of laundry, hit the dog nose smudges on the windows, swept the high points.
Now Back to the Back Door!!
