Reflections
Remembering ~ Embracing ~ Captivating
Moments of Your Life
A table draped with fine pink linens trimmed with white lace ~ pink depression glass holds mouthwatering, delightful fruits while a vase of hydrangeas has been set amidst gold edged plates…tiny delicate seashells gathered from Sanibel Island encircle tightly around table napkins ~ the silverware reflects the days activities
Scones ~ Raspberry Jams ~ Quiche ~ Lemonades ~ Cucumber Sandwiches ~ Asparagus ~ Buttermilk Biscuits ~ Ginger Snaps…only a few of that which has been prepared for this celebration
Young men and old gather for a game of badminton amongst the children playing ~ running ~ giggling ~ laughing…Women came dressed in clothing representing that which may have been worn during the late 20’s and 30’s when dresses flowed near to the ground of whites and ivory possibly adorned with flowers and cameos…straw or felt hats dripping with ribbons, lace and flowers were worn by all ladies in attendance
Friends and family from near and far gathered together this day to celebrate the 80th birthday of my dear mother…upon her head she wore a straw hat ~ her blouse danced with brightly colored flowers…this was her day…a day to remember ~ embrace ~ captivate her inner beauty, her graceful charm & her life
I write this blog to capture the moments of my life through hiking ~ backpacking ~ exploring ~ loving life
I hope that you as the reader enjoy reading my blog
