Beautiful Birthday Flowers & eCard

Okay, okay, this is the last thing I’m going to share about my birthday.

Marjorie, one of my co-wokers, made me a pick-me-up pink princess birthday card.  I wish I had thought to include it in my Birthday Bash post from yesterday (check it out for all of the goody bags!).  Here is her creation.  It just made my day on Wednesday:

Because I flip-flopped about working from home yesterday, my darling hubby had to change his plans for my birthday present.  It arrived on my desk today while I was in a meeting.  Aren’t they just gorgeous?

I’ve never received sunflowers before and they are just perfect.  They remind me of Sunflowers, a novel about Vincent Van Gogh by Sheramy Bundrick that I received recently:

I might just have to pick that up and read it this weekend with my beautiful flowers in the background.  After all, Van Gogh is one of “my people.”

    The sunflowers are just gorgeous. You should definitely read the book now to coincide with the flower arrangement. That would be really cool.

    I love those flowers because they are not a traditional gift. My husband likes to send me orchids, which are a nice twist on the rose thing too. Hope you had a great birthday!
