Vintage Easter Hop Party!

Hi Friends, new and old!
I'm excited to join Joan at Anything Goes here for Sunday's Vintage Easter Hop!
When we're talking vintage, we might as well start close to home and talk about me, Suzie Button!
Here I am, well, quite a few years ago when I must have been around 5 years old...
I'm the CUTE one, the youngest and smallest sibling in the front
My older brother Sammy is in the back and Billy on the left, my niece Pam in the middle
and my sister Connie with the cute Easter headband on in a matching coat as
Suzie Button.
This is when we lived in the country, which I really don't remember
as we must have moved to town not long after this and that's where I grew up...
I do love the Easter finery though...
off to church!
Church, in fact, is my strongest memory growing up of Easter
because as I became older we'd all go to sunrise services on a beautiful hillside
outside of Frederick, MD and it was always magical so early in the morning!
I grew up in a country church too.
My next Vintage Easter was part of two swaps that I received recently...

both blogger gals included adorable vintage cupcake picks!
Aren't they gorgeous sitting in my altered yogurt cup basket I received?!
So sweet!

I also was given these teeny tiny little Easter birds
I've never seen something so tiny and sweet
like a quarter inch big!
There was also this very vintage postcard that was from...
So wonderfully Vintage!
I collected a few sweet vintage and vintage wanna-be Easter goodies from
Etsy too for your enjoyment while you Hop through!

Thanks for stopping by!

  4. Gorgeous Etsy goodies, and the little basket and birdies are so sweet!
    I've seen several family Easter pics today, and now I want to dig around and see if we have any! I loved getting a new bonnet and purse and outfit every year when I was little. And I miss doing that for my daughter, but she is 21 and refuses to wear a bonnet!
    Happy Easter!

  10. You were REALLY, REALLY cute!!!!!

    I love the postcard. Either she was a giant or the chickens were tiny. Did you notice the funny scale of things in the picture. Too funny.

    Thanks for joining the Vintage Easter Blog Hop. xo Joan@anythinggoeshere AKA your hostess
