Daisys and Diggers

We went to Cheekwood to see CHIHULY today!

I have to admit I have never heard of CHIHULY till today but

Im soo glad that I now know what this CHIHULY is all about!

Beautiful hand-blown glass is what it is and its breathtaking~

My Aunt LeeAnne treated sister Kel and myself to the garden visit,

and afterward I treated everyone to lunch and an Art Museum visit to

the FRIST center in Nashville with more Chihuly!

Absolute wonderful day might I say~

I took this pic below of the dragonflies and lilypads at Cheekwood...

I thought it was magical~

I loved the beautiful Gardens at Cheekwood...

I have been before but it was late fall not summer.

I bet this place is awesome at night time!

Decorating the garden pool next to the mansion

Say CHEESEEE!

This Chihuly stuff is really spectacular...

The Mansion and Gardens are gorgeous by themselves

but with the Chihuly everywhere it was like Wonderland!

Capturing a shot of Kelli infront of the Cheekwood mansion

and the Chihuly SUN sculpture...just gorgeous!

Chihuly in a boat....Chihuly in the moat...ha ha jk

(It was in a pond, but I feel like Dr. Seuss a little)

Chihuly all thoroughout the Japanese Gardens

Sooo ZEN!

CHIHULY's 30Ft tall SAFFRON TOWER!

This soo reminds me of something on the planet Krypton~

(yes Superman's home planet! hee)

I love this bright blue CHIHULY!!!

WHAT A PERFECT AND WONDEROUS DAY!!
