Happy Easter!
I hope you and your family are enjoying a lovely Easter and that you’ll be willing to share some of your family’s celebrations.
Do you have a blog or Flickr account where you’ve posted Easter photos or have you written a post about your family’s Easter celebration? If so, please share it using the Mr. Linky form below. If you don’t have a link, feel free to share what you’ve been up to in the comments. I can’t wait to read all about it!
He Is Risen!

Dyeing for Some Fun
Posted by Danielle Bean in Homemaking on Saturday, April 11, 2009
This will be our fifteenth year of decorating Easter eggs on Holy Saturday. I guess that makes it a Bean family tradition.
Over the years, we’ve experimented a bit with different techniques. Natural dyes can be a lot of fun—art and science all in one!
With just a bit of preparedness, decoupage can produce some strikingly beautiful eggs (Check out Kristen’s gorgeous results).
Some of our chickens... READ MORE
Taking a Coffee Break
Posted by Danielle Bean in News on Friday, April 10, 2009
In recognition of Good Friday and Holy Saturday, we won’t be hosting our usual Coffee Talks here at Faith & Family Live today and tomorrow.
There will be some posting here, but it will be a bit quieter than usual as my fellow bloggers and I prepare for Easter. I pray God will bless all of you and your families as you prepare for and celebrate this sacred season!
The Road to Easter Day
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Reviews on Thursday, April 09, 2009
Many mothers struggle with how to share the events and liturgies of Holy Week with their little ones. A wonderful new book from Pauline Books and Media entitled The Road to Easter Day
This picture book by author Jan Godfrey is sure to become a Lenten and Easter classic in your home. It tells the story of Ben, a young boy who observes the... READ MORE
Triduum Juggling
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Family on Wednesday, April 08, 2009
Celebrating the Triduum is a lot easier when you don’t have children yet.
I remember the days when I could concentrate through Mass on Thursday, the Good Friday service, and the entire Easter Vigil, and use the time in between liturgies to read the scriptures and pray and meditate.
I love having children, but I do sometimes think wistfully of the simplicity of those days.
Bryan and I have had several... READ MORE
Spring?
Posted by Rachel Balducci in Just me on Monday, April 06, 2009
We are almost 20 days into Spring, but you would never know it from today’s weather. It is cold and blustery; I hear tomorrow is going to be even more frigid.
Tonight, the temps are dipping down into the 20s—that is cold for Spring in Georgia. There have been years when we’ve bundled up on Easter morning, but in general we are treated to afternoons with sun and warmth. After today, however, I’m rethinking... READ MORE
Easter Feasting
Posted by Rebecca Teti in Food on Thursday, April 02, 2009
As promised Sunday, here’s your opportunity to share—or plunder—favorite Easter recipes.
Our first Easter together, my husband Dennis requested “Easter Pie,” a traditional Italian meat and cheese dish.
What he neglected to specify was which version he desired, as each region of Italy has its own. And his non-Italian bride had not yet earned “Grandma’s” recipe so long as any of my new husband’s relatives... READ MORE
Match, Set
Posted by Rachel Balducci in Family on Wednesday, April 01, 2009
My question this evening is simple: do you torture your children like I torture mine?
Every Easter for as long as I can remember, I have dressed the boys alike. The whole lot of them show up to Mass in matching outfits. One year it was seersucker with white shirts. Another year it was matching golf shirts. The year pictured here, which was four years ago, we were channeling the Osmond Brothers. I have not decided what we will do this year, but I’m thinking it will involve their blue blazers with a matching tie.
It’s not nearly as exciting as finding the perfect Easter dress, but I’ll take it!
