For those of you who don't know i opened a flower shop in the town i live in last Sept.  I have really been enjoying it.  Although some days have been very stressful I have loved every min.    I recently got a call from a girl who told me she was going to get married  on 8-8-08 in Yosemite National Park on top of Half dome.  Than they were having a ceremony at the country club here in Groveland for those who would not be able to hike half dome...(it's about a 5 hour hike).  So she needed some boutonnieres and corsages.....the only request was that the bouts were mini callas and the corsages were wrist corsages  consisting of the colors  hot pink, bells of Ireland green, and orange...... not to much to go on!!!!!  but i figured it would give me a challenge!!!  so here are pictures of the outcome..... i think they turned out pretty good.... but i would love to hear your feed back!!!!!   I'm always up for some constructive criticism.    

First Day of school!!!!!

well.... the first day has come and gone.... and I was ... surprisingly calm.

All the kids were up early and ready to go.

They all wanted to ride the bus..... but me being the sap that I am told them I would take them to school!!!!

I figure I can only do that for so long I mean Carter is 11 now and come next year he is going to want me to drop him off at the end of the street !!! lol   

I was pretty calm dropping off Anthony too!!  even though he had  to get 5....yes 5 shots yesterday before he could start school and woke up at 1:00 in the morning with a fever. 

He was even willing to sacrifice the first day of school so he could stay with me and i could hold him......   :-( I hate shots!!!  He didn't even make it all the way through school...  but other than that I'm glad they are all back in school!!

SCHOOL!!!!

All of my kids start school on Wed. The 20 of Aug.   And can i just say that i am going to be super emotional... Why? you ask..... my little boy is going into kindergarten!!!!!  I don't know if i'm ready for that yet.  but i guess it doesn't matter he is going even if i'm not ready!!  I just can't believe how time has past!!!!

I'm super excited because i'm going to pick up the kids tomorrow!!!!! It's been a long summer with out them!!!! and i can't wait to hear there voices!!!!!Hopefully i won't have to whoop them to much!!!!
