My Easter Banner on April Fool's Day


I can't believe it's already April 1st! 
April Fool's Day!


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
April Fools' Day or All Fools' Day is a holiday celebrated in various countries on April 1. The day is marked by the commission of hoaxes and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friendsfamily membersenemies, and neighbors, or sending them on a fool's errand, the aim of which is to embarrass the gullibleTraditionally, in some countries, such as the UK, Australia, and South Africa the jokes only last until noon, and someone who plays a trick after noon is called an "April Fool".[1] Elsewhere, such as in France, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, Japan, Russia, The Netherlands, Brazil, Canada, and the U.S., the jokes last all day. The earliest recorded association between April 1 and foolishness can be found in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales (1392). Many writers suggest that the restoration of January 1 as New Year's Day in the 16th century was responsible for the creation of the holiday, but this theory does not explain earlier references.


There's no practical joke here though.  I've put my Easter banner back up on my interior front door and added a pretty little floral wreath below it.  The banner is attached to the door by magnets.


Here's a closer look... noticed I didn't forget my Bunnies...
