My husband surprised me yesterday with a bouquet of flowers. An early birthday gift, as it were.
"We won't be here for your birthday, so I thought I'd give you some today."
Sweet man. Roses, gerbera daisies and alstroemeria with lots of green salal. So very fresh and pretty. I broke the bouquet apart. Now there's a vase on the coffee table, two on the mantel, and one in the bedroom. I do love flowers, don't you?

ReplyDeleteAn early Happy Birthday to you, Lorrie. Your hubby is very sweet to give you flowers ahead of time and they are beautiful. White is quite elegant I think. Happy day to you!

ReplyDeleteI love flowers. Your hubby is wonderful and has excellent taste in flowers. Take care and have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers! Happy early birthday, Lorrie! It is nice to stretch out the celebration :)
ReplyDeleteLucky you! Happy birthday when it comes.
ReplyDeleteI love green and white, so fresh and pretty.
ReplyDeleteJoyeux Anniversaire, ton mari est un amour, les fleurs sont magnifiques ! Ma grand-mère les aimait beaucoup aussi, et c'est elle qui m'a éveillée à leur beauté. Quand j'étais petite je disais que je deviendrais fleuriste avec elle. A chaque fois que je suis au jardin je pense à elle.
ReplyDelete(Et d'ailleurs ta photo d'en-tête avec les dahlias m'a tapé dans l'oeil aussi :)
That's so sweet of him! And, I wish you a fabulous birthday for when it gets here. I hope you have a great day planned!
ReplyDeleteLovely bouquet...thoughtful husband! Happy B-Day when it arrives! Best blessings for a wonderful year ahead.
ReplyDeleteOh and white! I love white. What a dear man, eh?
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers! Happy early birthday!

Happy Birthday Lorrie! I hope that your time away on your birthday will be sunny and full of smiles! The photos you took in Finnerty Gardens are so lovely. That is one of my favourite places to wander.
ReplyDeleteSweet man, indeed.
ReplyDeleteAnd white flowers have a special beauty too! And when is the birthday???
ReplyDeleteSo thoughtful! And that must have been a big bundle of flowers -- your divisions are lush enough! My guy also had white flowers for me, albeit a much more modest bunch -- white ragged-edged tulips. So pretty and so fresh, just as you describe, the green and white.
ReplyDeleteHappy (early) Birthday to you! Beautiful flowers--I LOVE white bouquets!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Aimee
How Sweet and How Beautiful. Happy Birthday to you and may it be a blessed day and a blessed year for you~
ReplyDeleteHow thoughtful and sweet! Your flowers are very pretty, Lorrie. Enjoy them and an early Happy Birthday!

What a delightful husband you have. Congratulations on him and the forthcoming birthday.
ReplyDeleteBetter than flowers is a husband smart enough to give them :) Happy Birthday! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet man for sure.
ReplyDeleteI do love flowers in the house.
Lovely white ones, just gorgeous.
A friend once visited and asked why
I had flowers all over the house. I said because they make me happy.
Enjoy! And Happy Birthday to you!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY dear Lorrie!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have a very thoughtful husband - I'm sure that was one of the qualities you looked for in your life partner!
Beautiful white flowers and I agree with Vita's words.
I visited the magnificent garden she created at Sissinghurst in Kent. I didn't want to leave her white garden - it was so beautiful. She was very selective about what she planted.
Enjoy your birthday and many more to come!
hugs
Shane
Thanks for sharing your beautiful flowers. Happy Birthday!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Yes they are glad about the pecan trees, but not the walnut, so was glad they found someone else that did.
Hope you are having a great week.
