A Little Gift

Some very sweet and new friends of ours celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary.  Their daughters threw them a surprise party!  Sadly, we could not attend, but sent this little gift to honor their special day.  It was very simple and the 'House Blessings' book was such a sweet read.  Before the hydrangeas bloom, I am on the hunt for great containers.  In May and June, my friends with special occasions can expect they will get something filled with the flowers!  I attached a little quote that I just love...

Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years. ~Simone Signoret

  3. Just simply beautiful. I love hydrangea - have some wonderful bushes outside my bedroom window, but I hardly ever cut them and bring them inside - duh!

    Thanks for stopping by Fab Finds Thursday. Hope you'll drop by again this Thursday!

  7. I over prowling again. :) I am so glad I saw this post. The precious book "House Blessings" is such a lovely idea. A couple in our Sunday morning Bible Study are building a new home, this will be a great little treasure to give them. Thanks for sharing the idea.
