Lindsey's Senior Prom.....A City That Never Sleeps

It was a magical day. Glorious in fact. Lindsey & I

had so much fun much making the flower arrangements,

her bouquet & Matt's boutonniere. I thought it would be

stressful and that we were making a HUGE mistake.

It was truly an incredibly wonderful experience. I would do

it again in a heartbeat. I just woke up....picked from

the yard & then headed to Kroger for the rest of the

flowers.....easy peasy!!!!!

Someday I hope to do

her wedding flowers....it was that much fun.

Lindsey says "The third time's the charm.

I feel the same way. This was her

third time to attend the prom with

this wonderful young man.....Mr. Matthew Acton.

They have grown up so much....in fact....

they have basically grown up together before

my very eyes.

I absolutely LOVED doing the floral arrangements for the

tables. Lindsey and three others hosted a dinner

at the Country Club for 46 other prom attendees. It was

a really great group of kids....and a neat way for them

to really do a dinner. Securing the location, choosing the menu,

picking napkins.....all those important details that tend to

overwhelm a person. Of course.....they hired THE best florist

in town....and the price was right.....ME!

Of course anyone that knows me.....knows I am all about

the treats and the favors. Here is a sample of what I did....but

there were 4 different versions. I did this one because it

was the most manly. The others were polka dot and flowers.

I filled them with pink....green.....and white M&M's.

They were really cute!!!!!

.....and I would be remiss if I didn't add a sweet

picture of my beautiful daughter Lindsey & me. It was

such a happy day all the way around. I hope this

finds you well & full of special blessings.
