Thanks to my very verbal love of peonies, this weekend I ended up with three bouquets of them!!! My family and friends know how to put a smile on my face :) The giant fluffy one is from my mom's garden. She has quite the green thumb. Something she didn't pass down to me. I'm just glad I get to reap the benefits and stare at this beauty all day long! Also, Henry didn't quite understand what he was supposed to do with these gorgeous flowers. In fact, he tried to take a big 'ol bite out of one of them like it was his breakfast! I put an end to that quickly!

Beautiful pictures. My favorite, of course, is of Henry and the flowers! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThe most perfect, lovely, exciting bouquet anyone could ever give me would be a mix of pink peonies and white daisies. Is it possible? Somebody notify my boyfriend..
ReplyDeleteMy moms cat has a tendency to steal flowers and gobble them up but I think she'd be a little freaked out by those huge peonies!
