hello friend.

 i had the most wonderful time last weekend,
 in atlanta!!
 oh boy, can we girls talk!
and talk and talk....
giggle too.
 my budding friendship with amy,
this past year, 
has brought me such unexpected joy.
luv you, girlie!
 and getting to know her adorable sister, last weekend,
is a huge bonus....
like the powdered sugar,
 sprinkled on the strawberry crepes!
 yunno, how friendships can be...
some of them come and go.
some of them last a life time.
some deep, some shallow.
 there have been times in my life, where i have felt......well,
 friend lonely.
but not right now.
 oh no...
right now,
the chandy is lit and the flowers are a bloom!
in fact,
that chandy is a sparklin.

p.s.  all photos were taken at a baby shower in atlanta hosted by helen....i just love the flower arrangements she pulled together....she is an artist, gardener and photographer, who has bunnies in her basement....MY kinda gal.

I LOVE that big centerpiece under the sparkly chandelier! What an interesting and beautiful combination of colors! So glad to hear you had fun with girlfriends. Girlfriends are one of God's best gifts, I think.

Ah Erin - gorgeous photos - know what you mean about friend lonely too. Sometimes friends move on for no apparent reason just life or a change in circumstances makes them drift away. So glad you have found someone to really have fun with and enjoy her company.
