Flowers from Nana's Memorial

Aren't these flowers beautiful? I had to take their picture to keep them in my memory.

My mom gave them to me today after doing a slideshow of my grandmother's life for her memorial today. It was so fun and I got to use my new portable scanner.

Lillies

Below are two shots of my newest Lillie's! I love Lillie's. They are so beautiful and elegant. I had star Lillie's in my wedding bouquet. These will be potted on my front porch. Last year's Lillie's died and so did the year before. I need to study up on how to keep these going.

Happy Mother's Day?

I found my camera right after I posted my blog last night. It was in my craft room under my table. Oops!!!

So last Friday I called Jared to see if he was on his way home yet. And when he answered I heard a ton of background noise. He said he was on his way home and I was not satisfied with his answer. I felt he was up to something but I wasn't sure what.

He got home a little later than I anticipated. Jared came straight to me and gave me a kiss and said, "I'm not stupid!" I sat there thinking oh crude what did I do... he continued, "Nor am I suicidal. The question is do you want your Mother's Day present now or on Sunday?" I was a little dumbfounded and surprised. I responded, " I told you you didn't have to get me anything for Mother's day." Again he said, "I'm not stupid!"

We walked out to the Jetta and Jared had me open the trunk. There was a big beautiful Fuchsia plant. I love Fuchsias! I used to love popping them before they bloomed when I was little. But I now appreciate the beauty of their bloom much more.

Below are some shots of my gorgeous flowers. I absolutely love the color and how they open.
