mother's day & crowns ~

hope everyone had a wonderful mother's day!

it was gorgeous here so we spent the afternoon in the garden.
here's one of my gifts, an altered matchbox which says,
a mother's love is our first love ~ isn't that sweet.

the girlies and beasts all hung around while hubby and i did some gardening.
i did get them to pull a few weeds.

i wanted to show these treasures ~
the little one bought for me at some of my favorite chick mafia
stores in cali. pretty and pink, which reminds me of her
~ she knows her mommy!
