Girlfriends Gathering Milestone Birthday Party


Recently Girlfriends Gathering
gathered for another craft day and 
birthday celebrations!


Since everyone has a birthday sometime this year, 
I had a bouquet of Birthday flowers waiting for everyone to take home
 










 


Some of us are celebrating milestone birthdays this year -
10, 40 and three of us turning 60!
 
 
Happy Birthday Rinne!
Happy Birthday Marj!
Happy Birthday Karla, Nora and Me!
 When you're turning 60, you can either claim it or try to ignore it...we're claiming it!
 I made each of us turning 60 a special '60' tiara...
K - arla
 
 
 
N - ora
 


 
T- ami
 



  We shared a wonderful day of good eats, fun & friendship!
 
















Kim needed an additional outlet, so work where you can, LOL!






George even grab some lovin' from Gail!

I offered two projects and some brought their own projects to work.  
I did not get pics of everyone's projects (sorry!).
I've been cleaning out my 'STASH' and shared old clipboards and miscellaneous lids
for creating...
 





Happy Birthday to these
AMAZING FRIENDS!

May Gardens

For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!
Ralph Waldo Emerson


Isn't May supposed to be Springtime?
Our Spring lasted a couple of weeks before it was consumed
with the intolerance of Summer heat...and it was only May!

Today, June 2nd is a cooler day following
overnight thunderstorms.

Sipping my coffee this morning while enjoying the cool rainy air
on our sun porch, I see last night's thunderstorm downed two large branches
in our backyard and left my flowers drenched and bent over.  

Most, if not all the flowers should bounce back.  
I hope they do as they
have been beautiful this year...




































The earth laughs in flowers
