PINK OUT!

If you are planning to attend the Kentucky Oaks, you should know in advance that you can wear any color as long as it’s PINK!
The adopted color of the Kentucky Oaks is PINK in honor of the Oaks official flower, the stargazer lily, and the official color of breast cancer awareness is PINK.  To connect the Oaks with its partner charities, Susan G. Komen for the Cure ® and Horses and Hope, Churchill Downs is asking you to THINK PINK when it comes to your attire for Kentucky Oaks 137!

Hospital Volunteer Luncheon



It was my honor, to host a luncheon for the volunteers at our local hospital. This group of gals are dedicated, tireless workers who, like most hospital flower shops,  donate every penny earned in their little flower shop back to the hospital. next time you visit a loved one in the hospital, consider purchasing your flowers from the hospital. Your thoughtful gesture goes further than you might think! :)
 



Gazing balls were placed in the center with a message that today love is reflected in each them.   The Bunny stopped by and left jelly beans discretly, giving everyone a chuckle. Handmade " tweeties" were a take away for each of them.
 
I found this tiny bunny of joy last weekend in Amish country.
