JOYEUX  ANNIVERSAIRE
                   Birthday card for my granddaughter. When she was about 7years old(she is now 18) she said that she wanted to go to Paris and also have a Rolls Royce.  We told her that if she wants that she better have a good job or marry someone with money (LOL) . Not sure if she will go to Paris or have that kind of car so I made her this card. Knew she would get a kick out of it.

Night Blooming Cereus

Sorry I have been MIA, but LIFE kept getting in my way.  First off I had major

computer problems. Had to buy a new computer and what do I do with that one-

Yep I somehow got a virus in it.  Our computer guy said I had 841 threats. Good

news he got it all worked out. That is why I hate to go online and download

something that was safe which evidently my virus protection that came with

the computer did not pick up. So as soon as I got it back I went out and bought

Norton virus protection and downloaded it to my computer.

 

A friend of mine gave me these plants about two years ago and I waited

that long for it to have blooms.  These only bloom one time and it blooms

late at night. When I saw that I had two blooms I was thrilled. I was determined

that I would get up and see it open and take these pictures.  Went to bed and told my

husband if he woke up during the night to wake me up but  I woke up before him

at 12:30 and grab my camera and hoped that it did open. Mind you I am not one

to go out in my yard late at night because I am afraid of might be lurking around

like snakes or other little creatures. But I went any way. Both flowers had bloomed.

Took pictures and went back to bed and my husband woke up about 2:00 and woke

me up to go take pictures of flowers. Told him I did that at 12:30. Went back to sleep

and got up again at 4:30 and both flowers were dead. They only bloom for a couple of hours

late at night and if you miss it well you miss it .But I was so glad I was able to get

these pictures. Hopefully they will bloom again sometime. Maybe not this year

but next.

 

Thanks for visiting my blog and have a great day

HB2U
     This is a birthday card and not a Halloween card, but there is a story behind this card as to why I made it.  This is a birthday card for my oldest son(43 yrs old) I never realized how afraid he was of spiders until his wife told me a story about when he thought there was a spider on him and how he reacted to it.  Now mind that  he is an Eagle Scout and when he was in the Scouts he did a lot of camping outdoors and to think of all the kinds of bugs that were out there. He  goes camping with his son who is in the scouts now.  So I thought this would be a cute idea to make a card with spiders. Anyway I hope he thinks it is funny. I know his wife and kids will.
