In Your Easter Bonnet.....

Happy Resurrection Day! He is risen...He is risen indeed!

Today on this special day remembering what Christ did for us and still continues to do for us today we decided to celebrate with friends in the city. We had brunch at Tribeca Grill(Robert DeNiro is part owner) which was really good. After brunch we made our way down to the Easter parade on Fifth Avenue. Evidently the parade is a big deal - there were so many people out and it was fun to walk around and see every ones Bonnet. I decided to stick my head in and enjoy a little of the Easter Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. The wind was pretty strong and the temp was in the 40's but the sun was out and it was a beautiful day to play in the city. We have so much to be thankful for but most of all we should be thankful for what Christ did for us in dying and raising from the dead so that if we place our faith in Him we might have eternal life. He is risen indeed!







The parade is a tribute to the traditional Easter Bonnet. There were many to see....here are a few we caught on camera. Keep in mind this is NYC. In case you have forgotten the tune, here is the chorus as a reminder.

In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it,
You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter parade.
Ill be all in clover and when they look you over,
Ill be the proudest fellow in the Easter parade.
On the avenue, fifth avenue, the photographers will snap us,
And you'll find that you're in the rotogravure.
Oh, I could write a sonnet about your Easter bonnet,
And of the girl I'm taking to the Easter parade.
