It's a Thing about Frogs






Frog Friends gathering on the deck before our frog-themed dinner table in our matching Peace Frog "angel" Ts. We have the cutest Frog place mats, handmade for us by Barb (thanks again Barb!) for the occasion. Kyle matched the mats with the purchased pink flowers and picked the wild goldenrod from the landscape around the cabin. (Amazing how well he did that!)

Kelli brought the stuffed frog. He was one of Angie's. Even the Saturday Evening Post can Kyle found in the cabin to put that arrangement in had the right month/day date on it...September 20.
If you haven't guessed it yet, Angie was really into frogs. Not only that, she was a heck of a marketer. She took the frog theme and ingrained it so deeply in her persona that anyone who ever knew her will immediately think of her when a frog appears. It was part of her cuteness and playful spontaneity. She would have enjoyed us carrying on her frog theme in her honor.

We had a candle-lit (green of course) dinner of her favorite family meal, prime rib. I didn't get any pictures of the meal. We were too busy stuffing our faces!

I love these pics ~ and where did you find those shirts? They are too perfect! It's good to see Kyle & Kelli again and the table looks great. I can't believe Kyle found that "vase" with the right date on it. Guess it was meant to be.

The shirts are found online at peacefrogs.com. I thought I'd get the kids one each for Xmas if you will take a look at the site and tell me what size to get them. SHHHH!

The can/vase with the date on it was just pure magic!
