Last week, Joseph surprised me with a bouquet of colorful roses! He used to get me flowers all the time, but its been quite a while, so it really was a surprise!
It was great because this last week and weekend we got dumped with more snow, and it was nice to have a little taste of spring in our house. I also love the colors- my great grandma who lived by us had about a dozen rose bushes, all different varieties and colors. In the summer, she always had a vase of them on her table.
When Joseph presented these to me, Elora watched the proceedings with excitement. Then she enthusiastically asked, "Are we going to get married now?!"

Oh those are so pretty! They do look just like Grandma Norma's roses too! I wish Patrick would get me flowers. The last time he got me roses was on my birthday when I turned 26 and he got me 26 red roses. I thought they were really nice and moved them with me from room to room in the house during the day so I could look at them. It was awesome.
That was so sweet of him! The flowers are gorgeous - the colors go so nicely together! I hint of Spring really helps when the weather isn't cooperating (doesn't it know that it's Spring???).
Awww how sweet! I thought I saw some flowers in the window today! I love the different colors. You totally deserve them!
Sweet husband. Adorable daughter.
My grandma did the same thing - and I absolutely love the mix of beautiful colors. Happy Spring!
Kiera- I remember when you did that with your flowers, thats funny. Yeah, they're totally like grandmas!
julie-Yes, it was snowy last easter too, darn it!
melanie-thanks! I put them by the window so everyone could be jealous. Just kidding.
Chelle-thanks, you too!
I remember those bushes at your grandparents' house. What a nice husband you have to be thoughtful and get flowers during a yucky snow storm. I love Elora's question!
Ha, ha! I love Elora's thought processes. Thanks for a good story. And those are beautiful photos (of beautiful roses).
How about "Remas" for your son's name? That's my word verification for this comment.
missy- I always forget that you saw all these things from my childhood too..weird.
Sarah-Remas...hey,like Remus Lupin from Harry Potter. Wow, this opens up a whole new category for my nbame poll_ HP names! We could add Albus, Harry, Ron, Remus, Severus, Sirius..I think I'll add that right now!;)
Little girls have romance built in, don't they? I'm so glad boys and girls are so different.
The flowers are truly lovely
