A Rose and so much more...

 My family all knows that Mothers Day can be a bit hard for me....

 This year my daughter convinced my husband to buy me a small "pocket" camera.  He agreed and she started researching them.  She studied them for a long time, all the features and what she thought I would like.  They ended up buying me a Canon PowerShot.....

 Can you tell what I've been playing with?  

This is on macro..... It doesn't have a lot of features, but it has taken some great photos already, and I love the fact that it is small enough to fit in my pocket or purse.  It's about the size of a credit card, just a little thicker, but it is itty bitty.

I love the pictures of the rose for 3 reasons.

1.  The rose is from my son and his wife.....so sweet

2.  My husband bought me the camera to take it with.  We sometime call my husband" Mr. Checkbook"

3. My daughter was in on "researching" which camera for him to buy

(she also made everyone dinner, I got to choose the menu)

P.S. She also got me 2 necklaces, one has small shells on it, that is because my Mom loved shells, 

How sweet is that!!

All in all it was a Great Mothers Day!!

No greater gift for a Mom than having her kids around!!

Hope you all had a Great Mothers Day as well!!

Thanks for visiting my part of the country

Green Thumb....Not

 Everywhere you turn in the Caribbean there are beautiful plants and flowers. 

I don't know what this is, but I thought it was interesting so you get a peek at it as well. 

 All colors, textures

Does the Caribbean have bugs....in Oklahoma this would have holes eaten in it.

 They appear to just grow without anyone even tending to them.

I fertilize, bug spray, water and even sing to my plants and I never get this.....

I know what your thinking and yes they do like my singing.

 The colors are so vivid. 

 I could kill this in 2 days tops...... without even trying.

This looks more like home........well the bushes in the background do at least,

 kind of ............if you added some brown around the edges.

Thanks for visiting my wanna be garden
