Open the window of thy soul, and cast it's cares away.
When Easter gilds the dreaming hills, the shadows flee away.

It's Easter - A Postcard featuring Olaf

This is Olaf the snowman from the Disney movie Frozen saying "It's Easter!" This was a greeting card that had the top cut off and made a postcard out of it.  A few days later, someone else sent me the entire card, so now I have both.  I do not save cards, but this one I will :D

The Easter Parade is an American cultural event consisting of a festive strolling procession on Easter Sunday. Typically, it is a somewhat informal and unorganized event. Persons participating in an Easter parade traditionally dress in new and fashionable clothing, particularly ladies' hats, and strive to impress others with their finery.

John 11:25-26
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.

Mark 16:1-8
When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, "Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?"

But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

"Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.' "

A Happy Easter

As Easter flowers spring up anew
So in my heart spring wishes true
For Easter joys to come to you

Spring is painting sighs to-day
On every vale and hill
And this is just an Easter sign
Of friendship and good will


Happy Easter Wishes

As beautiful flowers of Easter blossom again anew
The blossoms of friendship in my heart
Live all the year for you
