It has been 3 weeks and all of the flowers that Allison got for the birth of Eva Grace have died. They were so beautiful too. She got roses and many other various flowers and they really spruced u our bedroom. We have to keep our flowers in our bedroom or else we would need a personal florist each and every day to replenish our supply. That is because our cats enjoy nibbling on the flowers. We shut them out of the bedroom (or at least we try to) so they can’t get at the flowers.

I have found that over this past year I have come to really appreciate flowers. I photograph them for Green Thumb Sunday and I even have a few in my 2008 Photo-A-Day Calendar. I even appreciate a beautiful arrangement like the one below. This one is from ProFlowers it is called the Masterpiece Bouquet, and I love the stargazer lilies.

And I can’t believe that an arrangement that is so beautiful and has so many flowers is under $60.00. We’ve used ProFlowers to send flowers before and they have always come through with beautiful arrangements like the Masterpiece Bouquet.
