Tablescapes, Crazy Daisies

 

In the midst of this incredible situation

I have truly experienced a Godwink or three

When my son, grandsons and I went to the beach

to self isolate in mid March,

I thought they would be staying for a week, and me, maybe two…

 

 

 

 

Then, as the situation escalated,

the boys mom agreed it would be better for them to stay another week

Creative homeschooling began

 

 

 

 

Week 2 turned into 3,

and as they were packing to go back to “the city” Easter Monday, their mom called

She said she would meet HHjr part way to get the boys so he could stay!

 

 

 

 

So he stayed another 2 weeks,

and then they decided she would keep them during the week to do the schoolwork

and he would keep them on the weekends,

that way when he started back to work, it would be a good schedule

 

 

 

 

Last Friday he went back to spend the weekend with them but was back here Monday

This is definitely his happy place too…

 

 

 

 

He was planning to do the same thing this week when all of a sudden he gets a text,

“I’m tired” she said…

“Why don’t I come get them and bring them back here for another week?”

“Great!”

 

 

 

So he left Friday and they were all back Saturday!

 

 

 

 

Lucky, lucky me!

 

 

 

 

HHjr picked up these crazy colored daisies on his last grocery run

 

 

 

 

He said,

“I figured you could do something with them and have some fun”

 

 

 

 

I happened to have the perfect thing…

 

 

 

 

Colorful crazy daisy napkin rings!!

 

 

 

 

I also added some colorful fish

 

 

 

 

Look at them swimming around the edge of this dish!

 

 

 

 

Again, all I can say is lucky, lucky me,

Not to mention these incredible sights we were able to see

 

 

 

 

The Navy’s Blue Angels are based in Pensacola, just about 30 miles east of our house

We often see them fly by as they practice along the coastline

You can hear them coming but you have to be quick, they aren’t visible for long!

 

 

 

 

The Air Force Thunderbirds joined them a few weeks ago

 

 

 

 

They practiced for their upcoming US air shows to honor our healthcare workers

and those on the front lines fighting the Corona Virus

 

 

 

 

Such an amazing experience, right in my own backyard!

If you get a chance to experience these shows, you will truly never forget the beauty, skill

and patriotic pride you will feel!

 

 

 

I hope I have brightened your day

and that you have many “Godwinks” coming your way!
