Hop, Hop into Easter



I know Easter is a month away, but I'm so excited about it! It makes me so happy because in my mind, it marks the beginning of spring and new life. New Years doesn't do much for me (as I have already said before) so spring is the best time of year to me. It is my form of New Years. I love seeing new plants, happy colors, warmer weather, etc. With everything becoming so beautiful again, it is a constant reminder to me of the true meaning of Easter beyond the eggs, baskets, and food. It marks the day of Jesus' rebirth. A day to remind everyone that Jesus is always here no matter what. Whenever I feel down or alone, I sometimes forget that I'm never alone. It is such a simple statement, but it is very true. You can be stranded on the side of the road, but God is with you always. It brings me so much peace to remind myself of this.
Along with the great meaning of Easter, is the adorable decorations! I keep getting e-mails from Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma with adorable Easter decorations! I can barely stand it! If I had lots of money, I would probably buy a lot of decorations for our house. Here are some of my favorite things I have seen:

I love these precious little nests. It would be so cute for a little boy's baby shower too!

This tree is so cute! My mom still puts her Easter Egg Tree out every year...it makes me smile!


I am stealing this idea for my kitchen table!


I think this table is gorgeous!
