Happy Flower Friday Fractured Fryday Hairy Tales Day!!!
Today we have another story based on fact. Today it looks like a certain Mama has some explaining to do!!!
Mama: So Dory, I stopped by Sequoia Gardens today to take some pictures for Flower Friday this week.
Dory: Ummmmm, Mama aren't you supposed to bring ME on your Flower Friday photo shoots???
(Mama (thinking to herself): "I know I need a good excuse" for not bringing Dory along..... )
Mama: But Dory, I was on the way home from the grocery store and just look.....
All the gladiolas are in bloom.....
Dory: They are pretty, Mama...BUT I think they still would have been there an hour later if you would have come home to get me!
Dory: They are pretty, Mama...BUT I think they still would have been there an hour later if you would have come home to get me!
Mama: But...just look how pretty the light is on this yellow flower.....
....and on this beautiful dahlia!!!
Dory: Yes Mama, but just look how pretty I look with flowers all around me.....I think I am much more important than the light, don't you???
Mama: But Dory.....I was right there....with these pretty foxglove, tea cup type flowers....
....and these pretty blue/purple-y flowers
Dory: Yes Mama, but if you would have brought me, I might have been able to help you find the signs saying exactly what kind of flowers they are....I mean, you are pawesome at picking out the dahlias, like this pretty pink one, but you need lots of help
with all those other flowers!
Mama: Well Dory, I know these are fuschias...
...and yes, here is a pretty pink dahlia
...and a nice dark pink and white dahlia!
Stellar Jay (whispering to Dory): Ummmm, Dory don't forget who gives out the cookies...
Dory: BOL....It's ok Stellar Jay, Mama knows I am just giving her a hard time!!!!
The End
...Stay tuned on Monday to see who came to California for a very important vacation play date conference!!

ReplyDeleteWell done for straightening her out Dory...allow me to join in...
the 'gladioli' are actually snapdragons, the 'cups' are Canterbury Bells, followed by Cornflowers... all favourites of my grandmother's and good old fashioned cottage garden decor!!! I'm sure some glads and maybe even a hollyhock or two will show up before long... keep looking - make sure of it Dory!!! &*> Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Dory, you are so right, these beautiful blooms would have been even more spectacular with you right there with them, but sometimes a Mom's gotta do what a Mom's gotta do. Thank your Mom for letting us see so much beauty today.

What a SHAME.... those flowers look SO sad that they were not Pawtographed with YOU, Dory.
ReplyDeleteMirror Mirror on the wall, who is the prettiest flower of All? Dory is Dory Is..
ReplyDeleteso sorry mom went without you. tell here those flowers are amazing and the fuchsias would be beautiful as Christmas ornaments.
Hey Dory!
ReplyDeleteWow, great FFHT today and there is really no excuse at all for not taking you along! HMPF. Anyway, my Mom loves those gladiolas and I wanna know what kind of birdie that is on the roof. Great way to combine FFHT and flowers today.

The flowers were very pretty, but they would have looked SO much nicer set off by some pretty white fur!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful flowers - not as pretty as you Dory but still...
ReplyDeleteDip and Elliot x
Ooooh, those flowers are so pretty! I especially like the fuchsia!!!
ReplyDeleteCammie!
So much loveliness in these photos! Totally gloomy here and has been for days. Thanks for sharing some of your sunshine.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great story! We enjoyed seeing all the pretty flowers. Usually we don't see those kinds until the end of August around here. And, of course, we enjoyed seeing you too!
ReplyDeleteOMC...those flowers are all so exquisite. Our mom wishes she had some place to visit to see so many gorgeous flowers at one time. But we all must agree, they would have been much pretty if Dory had posed with them. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteThose are all beautiful flowers but we do think they would have looked better with you next to them.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty, pretty flowers! Still, you are right Dory...they do look much much better beside you!
ReplyDeleteAh Dory. They are beautiful flowers - incredible! But, a Dory smile next to them makes them even more beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteWell, they are lovely flowers but I still think you were entirely in the right Dory!
ReplyDeleteGreat FFHT.
Toodle pip!
