Neabear and B-Daddy's Nest: Pink Saturday

I just realized that the last time I posted here was the day before I was rear ended in my new car. I am fine from that now and the car was repaired. The other guy was at fault and his insurance covered all the repairs.

I also realized that the first Pink Saturday I participated in was the first Saturday in September in 2008.

This is what I shared that time.

Items I have the feature the Linnea flower.

Special to me, because that is my name.

I have a link on the photo of a real Linnea flower on my side bar that should take you to a website with more information about the Linnea flower.

Now I have something new to share.

My mother had gotten this for me at some point somewhere and then forgot she had it.

When cleaning, she came across it and gave it to me. It was supposed to be a Christmas or birthday present in what ever year she bought it.

Anyway, here it is!

Such a cool addition to the Linnea flower things I already have!

And I love it!

Have not decided yet where I am going to display it though.

Happy Pink Saturday to all!

And thank you to Beverly at

How Sweet the Sound for hosting!

When you get a chance, go there

and visit some of the others who are also posting for

Pink Saturday!
