I was a bit shocked when looking at the photographs that I’d taken this morning…

I had taken a few nice pictures of one of the fancy begonias that had come in from outside, which had surprised me with a lovely flower…

and when looking at the picture of the flower, I discovered a spider, yikes…

wonder if it is still there😱…

shocked…

on a recent walk to the Park and around the gardens I was rather shocked to see how many trees had been removed throughout the forest between the walking bridge and the gardens as well as in the gardens…

there were still trees that had fallen or been blown over…

and it appeared that the pergola in the Leo Mol pond area had been completely rebuilt or else it had been sandblasted…

lots of changes since I was there in the Fall;-)…

parties…

big girl pants, parties, shocked, themed

a few days ago my daughter was texting me about a party she is having tonight…

she always gives great parties… her sister does as well…
she had prepared goodie bags, snacks and decorated her space beautifully… she often has a theme and does a great job of pulling it all together…
I was complimenting her on how well it had come together and she responded with: “Cause my mom taught me to throw a great party!”
I was shocked because it hadn’t ever occurred to me that they had learned this from me…
silly really, because for years we catered and before that we often organized parties for our family and friends… they were usually themed as well…
and, as the girls got older they would help with the prep, and even serving at the event…
not sure why this never occurred to me that my party giving ways wouldn’t have passed on to them, lol…
too funny…
