Friday’s Five Fave ~ Basket Love
I have many favorites from this past week so I thought I’d join my friend Susanne, from Living to tell the Story, in her weekly Friday’s 5 Fave carnival.
1. I’m so super excited about my family arriving today. In fact as you are reading this I will be picking my husband up from the airport and my kids and I have bets on who gets to hug him first. Something tells me I’m not going to win this one 🙂
2. So this was my front yard on March 19th of last year:
And this picture of my front yard was taken on March 31st of this year:
Oh my word, you can only imagine my delight!!
3. I have two little nieces coming today as well so I was thrilled to convert my under the coffee table basket back once again into a baby toy basket.
4. I went into our local drug store today and couldn’t believe my eyes. Baskets and more baskets. I just couldn’t resist this time, the temptation was too great. I walked out of there with this cute little chocolate brown wicker basket for only $3.99.
I’m going to use it for my hair products so I can leave them out on my vanity table without the clutter spreading as it tends to do:
5. Finally, and by far the most important, I’m thankful for my heavenly Father who sent His only son to die on the cross for our sins. The magnitude of that is more than I can even bear sometimes and I am so very grateful and humbled by the enormity of His love.
IT’S ALL BEAUTIFUL…………….HAPPY EASTER!
Hi…I just love your blog. Love the basket too! I can not believe you got that for $3.99.
Me too! 🙂
Happy Easter, Laura!
Cute little basket. Perfect for a bathroom. Hmmm, which drugstore did you say that was?
What a difference in the snow level from last year. Bask in that sunshine, girl!
Have a wonderful Easter with your family all together.
Everything is small in comparison to #5. I’m so thankful that He would have died even if I were the only person on earth. What a blessings and a time to celebrate His Resurrection! Have a blessed Easter.
Oh but I have to say that the basket is to cute! I wouldn’t have been able to pass it up either.
Hugs!
You have an exciting day ahead of you! Enjoy it, and have a blessed Easter.
Sounds like a great weekend of family fun! Enjoy. Your baskets are so cute. Praising Him who lived and died for us!
You are featured on my site today! Your site sends me lots of traffic every month…. I submit my meal plan to MPM.
Check me out! Thanks for your drive and hard work to make MPM happen!

What a cute little basket! I love using baskets to organize things. And your nieces are going to love their toy basket. Have a wonderful Easter weekend celebrating Christ’s resurrection.
love the basket under the table. Great idea. We keep a little “barn” full of toys for little one’s when they come over. Happy Easter!
Great pictures, and it sounds like a great week.
So much to look forward to — next week’s FFF should be fun to write!
Happy resurrection day!
I love baskets too and I love an excuse to have a toy basket in my house. Children playing in the house bring so much cheer!
Amen to #5!
Have a great visit with your son. I bet you will be the first to give him a hug!!!
Oh Laura! I hope you have a wonderful weekend with your whole family! Enjoy every minute!
Love the ready-made toy basket. That’s a great idea for easy access.
I think I’ll put together something like that with toys and books for when my nieces and nephews come over.
Love your site. I’m a huge fan.
NIce list. Good to be here again. I have such a time keeping my home up to speed when guests are here.
Love the new basket for hair products!
Where did you get that basket for the hair products??
