It's the Last Day of May...How Sad


I hate to see the month of May go. So much has happened this month but we end the month celebrating my birthday:-) This photo was taken at my grandmother's house 41 years ago! Note that pink was the color of choice back then AND my grandmother gave me a fresh flower arrangement, a pink diva in the making, lol. Do any of you remember those doll cakes? My sister and I got those for a lot of our birthdays when we were young.

I have many photos to share but I will have to do that a different post. A friend of mine and I are hosting a Vintage Themed Bridal Costume Party~everyone has to come dressed as a vintage bride, bridesmaid or flower girl. That is this coming Friday and my courtyard isn't finished yet~~ Yikes! Gotta get busy.

I did capture this completed rainbow yesterday after some storms blew through, not often do I see one that I can see the top part OR do I have a camera handy, lol.

Hope to visit everyone soon, until then
have a wonderful week!

What a darling doll cake and and fresh flowers! Wow!

Oh, BTW...the "post comment" writing was such a light pink it was VERY hard to see so I could tell you how cute I thought your photo is. Just thought you otter know! I'm sure others want to tell you how cute it is, too! :)

That's a beautiful rainbow that you captured. The doll cake is beautiful and now they (Wilton) make a cake pan just for the doll cakes, so it is a very popular theme with little girls everywhere. I like how yours had such a full "skirt".
