Easter Bonnets

In conversation today at lunch with friends,  the subject of Easter bonnets came up----specifically how no one wears them any more.

 The friends we were eating with were remembering one particular lady who always wore a hat on Easter.

Then we came home and our daughter called, asking if we had seen her Facebook posting yet.

Apparently some folks from her church had the same conversation, only they had it long enough before Easter to offer a challenge to the congregation to wear their Easter hats to church this year.  Daughter thought that people would go all out and wear really "grand hats".   She took a picture of her dress, and took that picture with her to the store, carefully selecting hat decorations to match her dress.

As it turns out,  her hat was the grandest of all, and it was selected as the "first place hat."   I can see why!

All the colors in the dress are on display in the hat.   Notice the dove!  And of course, my favorite Easter symbol, the butterfly!

What a really great idea!  Way to go Viki!   Very creative!
