Sweet Remembrance....

A week has passed and I'm musing on the love, activity, and excitement of that week ~ sweet remembrance and priceless memories.

Our home was filled with amazing blossoms ~

A magnificent bouquet from Remarkable Moms Celebration ~

not all the day lilies had bloomed yet, but they will!

Charming blooms and cherished words from sister in law Ann and niece Kate, who weren't able to make the trip to Tucson...

Loving homage from my soulmate and groom, for Mother's Day...

Our home is still fragrant with the remaining blossoms....I've restaged them throughout the house ~

Yes, they bloomed! 

And two new baby rose bushes for my rose garden....

I'm also having lots of fun with my new camera!  Haven't traveled with it yet, but have plans to give it more of a workout than just "still life!"

Mothers Day afternoon was spent at Hi Corbett Field where the AZ Wildcats took on the Stanford Cardinal.  It was a glorious day to be outdoors and enjoying baseball, although we took a shellacking!

Stopped by to see Kiki, who was holding an Open House, on our way home...then off to dinner at Hub ~ one of my favorite local eateries, especially the homemade ice cream!

A joy-filled weekend came to a close ~ little brother was on his way back to NYC ~ the girls and Ron were back to work ~ and I had lots of thank you notes to write!

I didn't have a chance to wish all a Happy Mothers Day, so I send you that special wish now.  I always make that wish for everyone...after all, we all have/had mothers!

I'm excited to report that the Boutique is now stocked with all existing inventory.  Let me know if I might help you with your shopping!  You'll find a direct link on the navigation bar at the top of the blog.  You'll also find some Past Treasures for inspiration.

Precious Metal Clay class begins on Tuesday and I'll be joining my friend Kathleen out at Picture Rocks, AZ for this series.  Our instructor is uber talented artist, Lyle Rayfield.  You can check her out here.

This is a whole new medium for me and I couldn't be more excited!
Here's a sampling of Kathleen's creations which inspired me to sign up for the classes....

Well, dear friends, that will do it for this Monday.  Next week I'll be honoring the fallen who've defended our blessed country so there will be no blog post.

Wishing you all a blessed week and a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend!  Thank you for sharing your time with me today....
