over the weekend my dh and abigail brought me unopened tulips.
they were hoping they were purple...my favourite colour...but they were not sure.
they did good...what a beautiful hue of purple they are...how sweet of them to gift me with such an elegant flower.

They are such a beautiful color, and they got the ones they hoped for.

Marmee, The tulips are beautiful. What a nice surprise for you. I was reading your profile and you are living my dream. I am from Pa and moved here when I was 16. We spent every fall in NC or Tn. My dream is to one day live in one of those states and experience the seasons that I so miss. I loved your previous post of the rainy morning and the birds - it brought back such memories.
Marmee, those are so pretty. A little bit of spring to enjoy in January;)

I have to say Marmee the colour is perfect......and what a sweet thought.....
Ooooh, your flowers are so purty!!! I, too, love the color purple and those tulips are the perfect hue, as you said. What a sweet surprise!!!
leedra,

coachk,
welcomed to "things i love".
we often remark on how we are living our dream. when we lived in florida we used to sing , a tender tennesseee christmas, and wish we were here. now we have been living in tn almost 9 years and really love it here. thank you for your kind words, hopefully we will cross paths again.
marnie,
i so needed a little colour in this grey january. it is very uplifting to see these blooms.
darla,
you must experience tulips even if it is only the cut kind. they are a very excellent flower. of course i am partial to the purple ones but all are beautiful.
tina,
thank you...hope all is well with you tina...and you are having a fine winter's new year.
thank you cheryl, i am indeed enjoying a little sweetness in the way of colourful flowers. i needed to see something blooming. it has lifted my soul.
rissa,
i know well we share our love of purple. did you know that brown papa's mother loved purple too? she had it in her country house in her bedroom.
these flowers were given at just the right moment when i needed a little colour lift.
As soon as the grocery stores start to have tulips and daffodils I am buying! They brighten up these wintery days and make me know spring is not too far away.
Such a sweet and thoughtful hubby!
mt,
