Our day started with true excitement! Greta found a snake! I raced inside and grabbed my camera, as she chased the little garter snake across the yard! By the time I got back, she had gotten to the rocks and stream on our property. However, she was not done looking for it, so I took a quick film. It still makes me laugh!
The Easter Snake from Dackel Princess Maribeth
One thing you should know is that I really hate snakes, but Greta was being so cute, that I forgot my fear, and just laughed like crazy!
After that excitement, I set the table and started preparing. Here is the table as it lay before our guests arrived.
Each guest got a small box of chocolate. After all, it is Easter!
Then our guests arrived and we sat outside enjoying the warmth.
Here are the salads. This was, perhaps, my favorite part of the meal.
Hubby slicing our Ham.
The vegetable bundles.
And for dessert, the coconut bunny cake!
It was a great day and we had a lot of fun. In fact the time slipped quickly by and before we knew it, our guests left and we sat down to digest! The only thing was the dogs wanted to get their dinner, so I had to pop up and feed them! All is done now, so I am off duty!
Was there a fountain in your video ? I heard the water running and had to go for little girls, lol ! Greta seems to like snakes when I looked at her little tail waving, so cute ! Your Easter table was beautiful and how lucky you are to be able to sit outside ! We had a terrible Easter weather with 5°C, rain and grey. Mr.G. has a big cold a running nose and feels lousy. We didn’t do anything, but next week our son and “DIL” arrive and then we will have our Easter dinner !
The ham looks yummy !
I had a great time and the meal was delish! Thank you for having us and I’m sorry we left so soon after dinner, but the doggies had their legs crossed back at home LOL! Love you!
Yum yum. You do know how to entertain, Maribeth!
As for Ms Greta — sooo cute, especially the way her tail wagged nonstop.

Wonderful pictures, we had a great day too. Love YOU, Mel
The meal looks delicious! Looks like you had a good time with your guests.
I loved the video and hearing your voice. Makes me feel like I was there. 🙂
This looks like a wonderful Easter 🙂
I need to watch this video of Greta and the snake as soon as I get home 🙂
I saw your pictures already on facebook, I peeked 😉 Looks like a lovely easter dinner. I would kill for good macaroni and cheese about now hehehe. The snake video is adorable. I see they are as much fun for dogs as they are for cats.
Oh, everything look so nice! The weather, the people, the beautiful decorated table – not to mention the food 😛
…and the snake video… She’s a cute hunter.
