Flower Arrangements










A few flowers from my yucca plant.  The yellow flowers are from my greens gone to seed.  I think they make a great flower arrangement.  The pink vase was Bob's mum's.  I think the shade of green is great and they have a 'featheryness' to them.

Luke's Graduation picnic was held at the park.  Snack platters to start off with, and then Chinese at 5:00PM, Luke's favourite.  It was nice to be with friends.

Thrift Finds






Just a few of the items I thrifted.  The Poppy top is pretty, but I'll need to wear a camisole underneath.

A silk skirt that can be worn on both sides.

The cross stitch table cloth is quite large for a rectangular table.  Spring flowers of daffodils, crocus, bluebells and other flowers.

The willow pattern service dish is a great shape I thought.

The little teacloth is sweet.  I thought the colours were great with the Langley plates from Candyce.  Although small I can place it over a larger cloth to tie the design in.

A Walk In The Woods












Friends taking a walk in the woods, one being a City Girl, Maria, scared of the three B's, Bugs, Birds and Beasts.  But we were so tempted by the beauty of the woods that when we found the trail into the woods at the edge of the park, where we were attending a graduation picnic, we just kept on walking.

As you can see they were so tranquil with the birds singing and the setting sun filtering through the trees.  It seemed like a gossamer wonderland.  The last picture so reminds me a walk in an English woods.

Maria took to swinging from vines.  Janice was most prepared for a walk by wearing sneakers, I had comfortable flip flops, probably not the best, but not a problem.  City Girl has on high heels Anne Klein sandals, definitely not a walk in the woods pair of shoes.  But we had fun and will remember the ambiance of those woods for a long time.
