hi ladies (and gents!) first off, just want to say I hope everyone is having a safe and fun 4th of July. Here in New York, it's been grey and cloudy with spots of rain on and off. not exactly prime BBQ weather but we made the best of it!
just left my MIL's house - JJ gets up at 4am for work so we scooted out early. speaking of my MIL - I know some people have issues with theirs but JJ's Mom has just opened her arms & heart to me. Having lost my own Mom when I was 21 , it is a wonderful feeling
besides all the welcome baskets, I wanted to get her a couple of small personal welcome gifts. these are personalized and the poem has yet to be framed but they are really sweet. JJ thinks his Mom will be very touched - I hope so!
aren't they pretty?? also, for the luncheon we are doing silk calla's as centerpieces. to make it a litle original, I went to my favorite place (eBay)
and purchased 5 different vases for the tables. I am planning on giving them as gifts to my daughter, my sister, my sister-in-law and of course , my MIL. she LOVES Mickey & Minnie AND her 79th birthday is the day before our wedding luncheon so here's the gem I found on eBay for her
do you think she'll love it??! I really hope so! my silk calla's should be arriving in the next few days so I will do a centerpiece set-up and post some more! thanks for tuning in
