My friend, Carol, gave me these patio lights for my birthday one year. They were in a big bag with everything needed for a way cool beans party! Paper plates, cups, napkins, silverware, placemats, citronella candles...all color-coordinated = )The disposable stuff has long been used up but I'd never hung the lights up... and I REALLLLLLLY wanted to!
Today, the long-awaited hanging of the lights! Thanks to Petey, they are up and ready to be enjoyed for a long time to come, hopefully. They look great...whether you're sitting on the patio or inside on the couch looking outside.What makes them even more beautiful is that I will ALWAYS think of Carol when I look at them. She is also beautiful inside and out. Super talented, sweet, giving, fun...AWESOME chicky friend!
She knows just the thing to give you to make you feel special...memorable gifts like the dog paw doorbell (installed here at our front door!), she bought me my first size 2 skort after I'd lost weight...a time in which she was my uber-encourager! That skort was recently handed down to Faithy who wears it often... and I think of Carol and her thoughtfulness and generosity when I see it.
What a special friend...I cherish Carol...and thank God for her!
