Flowers Galore!

While I didn't get to see the Macy's Flower Show in NYC this year like I've been able to in the past, I did get to go to the one in Chicago. I was highly impressed! Being around thousands and thousands of fresh, blooming, colourful plants made it one of the happiest days I've had in a long time.

I spent almost two hours walking around Macy's looking at the arrangements with my boyfriend. I would have stayed longer, but he got a bit bored and started looking at watches. Then I had to see every watch on display and I got a bit bored, so we decided to leave and head to the touristy, but oh-so-delicous Giordano's for stuffed pizza.

I took a zillion pictures of all the different floral diplays. Here are a few of my favorites.

Enjoy :-D

Happy Mother's Day!

For over a year now, our Mom, Kathi, has been asking us to help her start a blog. To be honest, we were less than enthusiastic... at first. Part of it was due to the fact that we all lived in different areas of the US and had no idea where to start. Allie and I happened to be together yesterday and decided to get this up and running for Mother's Day (we do have a few other gifts for her, don't worry!).

Mom, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you have done for us. We are excited to start this blog with you!

Pictured is one of our favorite photos that our mom sent to us. It includes a tiny dish that we got her from Fish's Eddy in NY and a cheery bunch of flowers from her garden. It makes us smile and we thought we'd share it with you.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
