"Mothers' Flowers"

Happy Mother's Day, one and all - whether you're a mother, or an honorary mother to the young girls and women in your life. You are all appreciated.

Mother of the bride, mother of the groom, grandmothers - these women are VIPS at a wedding. And as such, must be honored with flowers.

There are three options 1)  hand held bouquets - I know! I always thought they were reserved for bridesmaids and the bride! 2) a pin on corsage  and 3) a wrist corsage.

Debbie, (Rob's mom), and I are opting for the hand held bouquet. One too many hugs, and the "pin on" variety gets squished. And I don't like things on my wrist.  Our florist was very strong in her opinion that grandmothers much prefer the pin on corsage. So we're going with that.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

And as it IS Mother's Day... Please enjoy a "Mother's Pride" - some stand-out Karnes' Girls artwork.  Picture  # 1 is "Tear Art". Julia used a photo of herself as a pattern, then tore black and white construction paper to create a self-portrait. Picture #2 - a clay piece, Picture #3 - an abstract drawing and # 4 a metal etching of our beloved dog, Schultz.

Tomorrow, I promise I'll get back on track and focus on wedding stuff only. Thanks for indulging me these last few days!
