This is the first Easter that Mr. Bear and I are spending all alone together in our home. We couldn’t get away to our families’ houses this year and I didn’t know how sad I would be about this until I woke up this morning.
The sun is shining, I have no one to go to church with because Mr. Bear is going golfing with our other orphan friend, I have no reason to put on an Easter dress, no Easter basket, no Easter egg hunt… nothing. I miss my family and my husband’s family and all their traditions. Mostly I miss my Grandma.
Here is me and my grandma last Easter:

And from 2007
We all miss her extra this year and wish she was still with us. However, I know she is smiling down upon our family – wishing she was there to laugh with all of us. We miss you Toots. I will be making your scalloped potatoes today in honor of you!




This is my first Easter away from my family as well! Definitly not the same! Hope you have a happy day anyways:) I made scalloped potatoes last night, yum!
