Decorated boxes and Deconstructed bouquets

Don't you love this time of year when you never know what the mail may bring? We got two boxes today and one yesterday. Imagine my surprise when I opened this one yesterday and found the INSIDE decorated. Jennifer and the girls sent an extra smile with that one.
Stars and stars and stars and stars ~ oh my!
Deconstructed but still beautiful, yes?

For the past few years we have received an arrangement of flowers from one of Buck's business friends. Yesterday the delivery truck pulled in and out came a HUGE floral arrangement fit for a dinner party centerpiece. We don't have a formal dining room and don't have dinner parties so today I took it apart and made two small arrangements. (Frankly it looked like funeral flowers ~ flat like on top of a casket) Here are the afters ~ I didn't think to snap a shot of the before.

Awww. Thanks for showing our box! And great idea with the flowers!

Veteran’s Day in America Buck and Chuck were Navy Seabees,  Their dad was Navy Fleet.  Apparently VERY different.  Had to get some work done...
