Pap and Granny’s grandkids Easter 2002
Then Mary came at early dawn
To see where Jesus lay.
His clothes were there, but He was gone.
The stone was rolled away.
The angel spake to Mary there,
“Why seek Him among the dead?
Go tell the world He is not here.
He’s risen like he said!”
He rose, He rose from Earth’s domain
Upon Golgotha’s brow.
He lives on high beyond the sky,
His tomb is empty now.”
~His Tomb Is Empty Now

Wishing each of you a blessed Easter.

I forgot the most important part of Easter: HE’S ALIVE !!! HE HAS RISEN. HE HAS RISEN INDEED!!!
I love the picutes. The girls are wearing “lids” as my Granny used to call our Easter hats!
And a blessed Easter to each of you as well.
God bless.

Beautiful grandchildren Pop, What a lovely day today. Praise God Jesus arose. Nice post Tipper sure enjoyed it.
Looks like new outfits, all around. That reminds me how that, as a youngster, any new Sunday clothes that we got were most likely to come at Easter.
Tipper,
Love the picture! Beautiful and handsome little princes and princesses!…The daffodils seem to be singing, “He is risen”! Spring, daffodils, new dresses and Easter Sunday just belong together.
Happy Easter to all
Thanks Tipper,
PS…
I had a terrible time accessing
the Blind Pig early this morning. I am glad it is fixed…
Hope your Easter was Happy and Blessed. Do I see more than a bit of Pap in the tallest fellow?
Happy, Blessed Easter. The taller fellow reminds me of Pap.
A finer looking troupe of Easter revelers has never assembled. Have there been others engendered in the ensuing dozen years? The song was sung by The Cathedral’s and The Singing Echoes. If there were others I haven’t heard them. Do Paul and Pap sing it?
Cute kiddos. Hope you and family have had a happy Easter.
Hi Tipper,
Happy Easter for all apalachian people, José Luis.from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
He has risen…..
Tipper,
HAPPY EASTER TO EVERYBODY!
Those are some nice lookin’ youngins.
And the above verses are bold. In our
world today, it’s hard to get folks
to even speak the name of Jesus, let
alone follow His teachings.

May the Easter gatherings and prayers bring peace and love to all who celebrate the resurrection of the Lord!
HALLELUJAH!!!! HE IS RISEN INDEED!
Fine, beautiful, healthy, bright children, God’s children.
Happy Easter to all!
