• Sun 8 Apr 2007 - Big Hats and Easter Sunday...A Tribute to my Mother

Mom always wore big hats to church on Easter Sunday. Back in the 50's she wore pretty white gloves and always had a hankie in her bag. Mom was a beautiful lady. She made all her own clothes. Most times she did not use a pattern. She also made clothes for my sister and I.

My dad's Uncle Nonie Thompson used to fuss and say if he sat behind momma in church he couldn't see over her hat! This Sunday I decided to start a tradition in her honor. From now on I will wear big hats to church on Easter morning!

You look fabulous Rosie. I love those ladies who wear the hats to church, they know they look great. You should get a red heat and join the Red Hats of America. LOL
Happy Easter

My pastor loves to see women wearing their "Easter bonnets" on Easter Sunday, and always comments on those that do. You look great!

Blessings,

I absolutly love the hat. I always get odd comments about my dress, Usually something about me not dressing my age and do I even own I pair of pants. (I'm 26.) I think people have willingly forgotten how to dress with class!

Nobody here ones them. I would love it! You looked lovely.

Try wearing hats for a bit and start your own trend. If i thought no one else was going to wear a hat I might not! But if anyone else is wearing them I have the courage to do it to.
