Thanks so much for all the wonderful birthday wishes yesterday! I had a wonderful day helping Mama unpack and helping Daddy put together furniture...or maybe napping and playing outside.
Today we are continuing my Birthday celebration with Flower Friday!
After Mama and I did my Birthday Crown photo shoot, we went for a adventure walkie through the hills in search for one of Mama's favorite flowers...
The grass was full of wonderful smells as Mama and I hit the trail, and before long, we saw them....
Lupines!!! As you may remember, one of Mama's favorite flowers is the Texas Bluebonnet, which is a member of the lupinus family...
These beauties are also a member of the lupinus family!
Plus, they are surrounded my great smells!
You can see these beautiful purple-y-blue blooms everywhere during May
They always look especially beautiful when they grow along the hillside!
What a great Mama and Me day I had for my Birthday!!
Tomorrow, I'll wrap up my Birthday week and show you the
PAWSOME pressie I got from my sweetie Mabel!!
Speaking of Birthdays, look who else has a birthday coming up in June:
June 20th - Angelique - Lone Star Cats
June 21st - Xena - Lexi the Schnauzer and Friends
(Not on Calendar)June 23rd - Katy - Sheltie Times

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful area to walk in and such pretty flowers too. Bailie is excited for her birthday month. We hope she will be able to celebrate, but we won't know until after she sees a specialist next week. No matter what, she will be able to eat cake!
ReplyDeleteOMCs Mayor Arty what a wonderful birthday walkie you had with you sweet mama.

Do y'all ever see wildlife on your walkies.
Mom has just started seeing lupines at the garden shops around here. She is wondering if hummingbirds like them.

Thanks for remembering Katy. We've submitted our dates but never seem to get on calendar.
ReplyDeleteMom so loves the flower Fridays.
Those lupines are so pretty. Thanks for sharing your fun adventure with your mom.
ReplyDeletethe only thing better than your birthday trip would have been if I could wander with the two of you... so much beauty, so many gorgeous flowers and you look AMAZIN on that drift wood
ReplyDeleteYou sure found some beautiful flowers! I'm glad your special day was very special pal!
ReplyDeleteWe did not know about that connection between lupines and bluebonnets. They are both beautiful flowers. We remember when you would post the beautiful Texas bluebonnets. And now these lupines are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat adventures you are having, Arty.

ReplyDeleteWhat a day you had with your mom, Arty! Those lupines are gorgeous! And I love the photo of them on the hillside. I agree with your mom about that. You are a lucky dog to get a "Mama and me Day" for your birthday!

ReplyDeleteWow! Those flowers with the mountains in the background make me want to be where you are today!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful walk!! It sounds like you had a very nice birthday!!
ReplyDeleteWow...your lupines are wagnificent! Ours have morphed into blue, purple, lavender, reddish pink and light pink. We wish the bees would have kept them all purple. ☺️
