ABC WEDNESDAY-"Q": Quirky Mother's Day Hats

Moi, granddaughter Olivia and daughter Kati

Part of our Mother's Day Celebration was to wear a hat we decorated ourselves.  Even some of the males celebrated with us.

MOTHER'S DAY-Art in Bloom #3, "White Plumes," Henri Matisse

Heidi Olson who designed and created this creative  floral arrangement was inspired by Matisse's painting, "White Plumes." She said, "The centerpiece is the lady's elegant hat.  I will try to suggest its general shape, and with my arrangement, express the grace and fluffiness of the hat."

At our own Mother's Day brunch all participants, male and female alike, will have to wear a hat which they decorated. We'll vote for the "best" hat and the winner will receive a prize!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
