summer flower class

It had been a while since we attended a Connell's flower class, so we were thrilled to see another one pop up. It was a food drive kick off, so we prepped our cans for containers as well as packed up some canned food donations before the class.
Amara was especially excited to go--she had helped Melissa on several projects recently, so she was ready the morning it was happening, even though we had a party later.

We were surprised when we got there to see that they even had cookies to frost and decorate for the girls before we got started with the "fun part!"

Cora was happy to decorate though, then moved on to her flowers--she picked lots of purples and a rose and Eric added a mum for her too. She picked out a purple ribbon to wrap around the vase to finish it off. Amara took a little more time with hers, strategically picking her flowers and taking the time to carefully place each one.

When they were done, they each took turns visiting the walk-in cooler :) Then they surprised me with roses as an early birthday present, which was a great surprise and so cute for daddy to arrange :)
