PINK SATURDAY & HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet the Sound. Thank you Beverly for hosting this fun event.

I'd like to take this time to wish you all a Happy and Blessed Mother's Day. Whatever you do I wish you much happiness.

Today for Pink Saturday I have my pretty wisteria blooms to show you. I know they are not pink but just about any pic I take in my house has pink in it. LOL

The blooms are so pretty and the scent is heavenly!

Here's some growing up a tree out behind our house. We just threw some vines out and they grew up a dead tree.

You can see it winding up the tree here.

Here' s some lilac's from my garden.

My wisteria in bloom a few years ago. Molly the Newf under it.

Some lilacs from my garden.

I love to decorate in the color lavender this time of the year.

A pretty lavender cross stitch tote I made a few years ago.

Thank you so much for stopping by it was so nice to visit with you. I wish you a wonderful Mother's Day.

Blessings to ya. Shirl

PINK SATURDAY

Hello and welcome to Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly of How Sweet The Sound. Thank you Beverly for hosting this fun event.
Today I'm showing you Mother's Day Gifts for my pinkness. Above is a cute little silk embroidered dove that I made for my daughter. Jen loves Doves, she and my mother used to feed them all the time. My Mother used to tell Jen that doves mated for life. I gave Jen my mother's porcelain doves and she used them on her wedding cake table. Doves were always special between her and my Mother.
I also made her the pretty little tag below. The vintage image reminded me of the Seaside Victorian of Cape May, NJ where we used to vacation when my daughter was a young girl.


Latley I had been admiring the black diamonds when my husband and I were shopping and he surprised me with this little black diamond panda bear necklace for Mother's Day. What a nice surprise. I did not think he was paying attention when I showed them to him. LOL

My daughter Jen made me this pretty little pink and while faux cake for Mother's Day. It's just perfect for my new guest bedroom that I will be showing you soon.

Jen also made me this pretty little nut cup party favor, made from pink satin, vintage millinery, also perfect in my new guest room. Thank you Jen I will treasure them always!

My son and his wife surprised me with a pink rose bush. Blooms are on the way, I'll get a pic for you as soon as it blooms.

My daughter Jen came for a visit last Friday so I made us a yummy cake to have with our lunch. It was just a yellow cake mix and I usually use milk instead of water when I make them. Went to get the milk out and I forgot dear hubby finished the milk at breakfast. I keep powdered buttermilk on hand for scones so I tried that and what a yummy moist cake it made.

We had such a nice day, Jen helped me with some things I needed to do on my computer. She's computer savy, I am not! LOL We looked at pretty blogs, looked through decorating magazines and shared lots of craft ideas. Just a perfect day!

I only had a few blooms on my wisteria this year. For the past few years we've had a late frost so that usually does them in. When we are lucky enough to have it bloom the scent is heavenly when you walk onto my porch.

Thank you so much for stopping by. It was so nice to visit with you. I'll be back on Monday for a Blue Monday post with Smiling Sally. Have a great weekend!

Bless you, Shirl
