Last week was my best friends wedding. We had a wonderful time celebrating and enjoying time together. A lot of old friends came home, new friends were met, and fun was had. It also happened to be the first week that I was back to school! EEEK! Needless to say, I was running from one place to the next from Tuesday afternoon on! Thursday was the rehearsal, Friday was a picnic for the wedding party and some out of town guests, and Saturday was the big day. Though my dear friend asked someone to do flowers for her wedding, we were trying to think how to save some money with the rest of the entertaining. So, I did flowers for her picnic with stuff from my garden.
The picnic was a fiesta themed and her colors were blue and orange. Earlier this spring I planted some very small zinnia plants that I thought would just fill in space. Little did I know that the zinnias would turn into small shrubs in my garden, full of orange and white flowers! PERFECT! Zinnias cut well, are the right colors, and I have a massive amount of them! So, when Wednesday rolled around, I went to work, got home and put together 13 vases full of flowers for the picnic on Friday, as I knew it wouldn't happen on Thursday. Overall I think they turned out!
