This last week was full of fun and surprises.
First, my beautiful god-daughter (BGD) invited me to go and watch
while she tried on wedding gowns.
I can't show you BGD in her gown,
but I can give you an idea what Mia Bridal Couture is like!
Rows and rows of beautiful dresses.
Oh, my!

There's been lots of wonderful action in Musashi's Garden.
I planted four new roses this year and the first one to bloom
is the wonderful lavender floribunda called Enchanted Evening.
I am enchanted!

My one and only day lily started blooming this week.
The very handsome male common yellow-throated warbler dropped by
and I picked the first *mess* of green beans from the balcony garden.

Have you ever heard of Bed Head Pajamas?
I hadn't heard of them and I love the name.

Lastly, I want to give a shout out to my dear friend and her hubby:
My heart aches for them.
Cowboy is fighting the same horrible cancer that took Mr. Dragon
from me less than three months ago.
Please send them your love and support.

Thank you for hosting:

That is quite the dress, though I can't imagine who would choose it. A very unique person, that's for sure!
Green beans already? And we haven't even planted ours yet! Well, my parents haven't. It looks like a bountiful spring where you live. Not to mention hot. 80 degrees!
What a gorgeous dress. Hope that you had a wonderful Mother's Day. Thank you for being a part of Seasonal Sundays.

Those gowns look stunning. Love the color of that rose. It doesn't even look real. Like silver.
What a stunning dress! Beautiful blooms, too. I see you are an animal lover. On the first Friday of each month, I host Furry First Fridays, where folks share favorite photos of their pets. I'd love for you to join if you're interested.

Hi Sanp!
A secret I haven't announced on my blog as yet: My daughter is getting married next year! I look forward to shopping for a wedding gown with her!
Your garden is so beautiful and the rose really is enchanting!
I will visit you blog friend to tell her I will include her husband in my prayers.
What fun to be invited along to wedding gown shopping. Your garden is looking beautiful, no wonder you're enchanted by that rose! And a mess of green beans already? How delightful!
What a pretty gown!
Great mosaic with sure signs of Spring - bet those green beans were good. :)
A dream of a dress! Great mosaic.
Shopping for the wedding dress must have been so much fun. They are all so pretty, I'm sure it was hard picking out just one. I love your flowers and the Common Yellowthroat is a beauty too. I will keep you and your friends in my prayers. Thanks for stopping by my post and I hope you have a great week.
What a pretty dress!
Best of luck to Roo and her husband. I hope his cancer treatment is successful.
I bet the wedding shopping was fun, especially if she was trying on fun dresses like the one you showed!
Looks like you are really enjoying your garden. Sadly mine has been neglected up until now, but I hope to do something with it soon.
Thanks so much for visiting and commenting on my blog over the weekend. Sorry it took a while to check in with you.
Mess of greens...LOVE it! Used to help my granny pick a mess of greens when I was younger, thanks for bringing this to mind today! Thanks so much for visiting and for your sweet comments. Hope your week is wonderful!
Looking at the wedding gown brought me back to the day my daughter and I shopped for her's..how quickly time flys!Little did we know that day that each of us would take a walk with cancer a journey we both survived so I understand about "cowboy"..I send prayers and healing energy his way.in SOLID remission naturegirl.
Oh, that purple rose is gorgeous! What a lovely color!
I didn't realize that you had lost your husband such a short time ago. My best wishes to your friend and her husband.
The bridal dress shopping must have been wonderful! Lovely flower mosaics too.
I adore that shot of the yellow throated warlber. Does he really warble?
Best wishes to your BGD on her upcoming wedding. What a nice thing to ask you to go with her for this very special occasion.
The rose is gorgeous; the warbler is wonderful; I am more than slightly envious of your beautiful green beans. Enjoy!
Oh my garsh, that dress is to die for! Not too many could pull that one off, but the ones who can? WOW! Your garden looks wonderful! K, I'm looking at your links! xo
