Gifts from RF...The photo in the flower pot is of RF standing in a flower pot with flower petals as ears. His two signs say, 'You are my sunshine' and 'Thank you for helping me grow.'
There's some truth in some of these statements and others are totally off the wall...
Handprint flowerpot from Ellis that says, 'Thanks, MOM, for the good roots.'
Some insight about mommy from the 2 year old...
Saturday morning I set out on a day trip with my mom, Mrs. Margie and Aunt Gale to the Biltmore House in Asheville, NC. We had a great time chatting and driving through the back roads of GA and NC before arriving in Asheville about 11AM. We grabbed a quick bite to eat at Zoes Kitchen before heading over to the Biltmore for our 12:30PM entrance time.
We made it!
