My daughter made this beautiful floral display for her mother-in-law. I put them ontop of the car to get the sky as a backdrop.

If your wondering what she gave me, she planted lots of flowers in front of the house for me today and put up a fountain. :)

I hope you all enjoyed your time with your family today.

I just noticed now that my spelling is off in my posting. Geez o pete! =^..^= sandi ♪

The blue and yellow color contrast is very beautiful (They are the colors of the Swedish flag :-)) A wonderful looking display and a great photo. I like how you used the sky as a backdrop.

That's a colourful and beautiful floral display Sandi. I like the sky as a background. Don't drive off with those on the cars roof. Hope your having a Happy Mother´s Day.

I keep hearing Bert Kaempfert's version of "Red Roses For A Blue Lady" in my head. That's OK, though...I love that song. Excellent colors in this, and I think it is gorgeous against the sky. Well done, Sandi.....Happy Mothers Day to you.

A beautiful image for Mothers everywhere. Incidentally, mother's day in the UK was on 22nd March this year. Who knew they were on different days?

Oh my! I've never seen roses so blue! She did a wonderful job arranging them and she did a wonderful job, I'm sure of planting and putting in the fountain for you so you can get some more wonderful photos! I'd love to see the fountain. Very pretty, Sandi.

Lovely arrangement your daughter made! I can see where she got her creativity from!

Thanks for photographing them on the car top. It was a very clever and pleasant way to bring them to the rest of us.

Happy Mother's Day!

Good shot of flowers on a car from a former "flower child" Tigz. Do you drive a VW bus? Just kidding. Takes you back to Frisco, right?

Wonderful shot and clever idea. Don't ask me what I did today. I am in trouble. lol
Happy Mother's Day.

Putting your pictures in my favorites is the highest honor I can give you. If I could, I would give you an award. But alas, I cannot. So the highest praise I can award you with, is faving your artwork.
