Longwood Gardens



You might get the idea with these photos that my favorite color is pink!


My hubby loves to take photos.  We have lots and lots of photos that of this beautiful place!


One of the favorite spots that our daughter and my hubby love to visit is the vegetable garden.


Our wonderful, lovely, daughter!

Sorry that I have not visited my blog lately.  It's been busy!  We've finally been getting out of our house...after a long time of hibernation.  

The above pictures were taken at one of our favorite places to visit,  Longwood Gardens.  We have been going there for many years, and have lost count as to how mnay times we have been there.

Our daughter, offered to drive us down as a birthday presnet to me.  (Nice birthday present)

I haven't made any cards in a couple of weeks.  I tried to get back this weekend and find someone to come to my house to make cards with me on my birthday.  (I used to have several people come to my homs on a weekly basis to craft with me)  The people I called were all busy.  Either going out of town or busy baby sitting grandchildren, etc.    So that did not happen!

I received some beautiful birthday cards...  and I still haven't gotten around to thank everyone yet...
which I hope to do later today.   (And also catch up with my commenting and visiting other blogs.

Thank you for stopping by...
Blessings,
Jill

    What a thoughtful birthday gift Jill, and your daughter looks lovely! Happy belated birthday, and may you enjoy the time you have outdoors - we are heading into winter and 'hibernation' :)
    Blessings

    I've only been once to Longwood Gardens and that was one Dec. It was gorgeous! I would love to go back sometime. Gorgeous photos, I have a ton from that one time myself as I couldn't stop taking them! Love your daughter's beautiful hair, she is a stunning woman. How sweet of her to drive you guys there for your birthday Jill! Happy Belated Birthday!!! Are you a May baby or end of April baby? Sorry everyone was to busy to craft with you on your birthday. I'm late in getting around too, been busy with grass mowing and of course Savannah wants to be outside playing ball. Soon we will be busy getting the pool up and running as well. If it ever warms up and stays warm that is! lol Hope your had a beautiful Mother's Day Jill! Hugs and Blessings, Brenda
