Egg Hunt!

Have a blessed Easter this next Sunday as we gather with fellow believers, family, and friends to celebrate the risen Lord with songs, with praise, and even with egg hunts!


Joining the Scribble Picnic egg hunt with my colored pencil drawing. You can see what others have scrambled up here!

Edited to add this photo taken eleven years ago of a chair I painted. It's made a good conversation piece, and no one has broken any of the eggs after all these years!

Creams Sampler Box

Chocolate creams... Y U M !
I do love a good chocolate candy, especially dark chocolate, but milk chocolate works just fine, too! Chocolate cream, caramel, coconut, fudge filling–yes please! Just please don't ruin that delicious chocolate with a nut or fruit-flavored cream filling. What's your favorite chocolate filling?


You can see what others came up with for the "Creams" theme here where I've linked my colored pencil drawing with Scribble Picnic.

In Awe

     I've always loved to look up at the night sky, so clear and crisp and unfathomable. The moon with its predictable pattern, and, so amazingly, even the unending stars stretching out over the universe are set in their places, as they have been for thousands of years. Amazing! What an awesome God to have made this! But even more amazing is that in the midst of all this he reaches down to me, and to you, with such individual love.


Linking with Scribble Picnic. Fly "Across the Universe" here to see how others have been inspired by this week's topic.

Psalm 8 New International Version (NIV)

Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
    in the heavens.
Through the praise of children and infants
    you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
    to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider your heavens,
    the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
    which you have set in place,
what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    human beings that you care for them?
You have made them a little lower than the angels
    and crowned them with glory and honor.
You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
    you put everything under their feet:
all flocks and herds,
    and the animals of the wild,
the birds in the sky,
    and the fish in the sea,
    all that swim the paths of the seas.

Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all the earth!
