Flamingo Fun....'cause that's what we do here, dontcha know

**But before we continue with the regular scheduled blog posting, let me remind you/tell you about the Japanese doll giveaway.......go to THIS POST and read all about it. (But don't forget to come back!!) Okay...continue on....



Today in the mail, along with some other stuff I ordered from from that Internet book place....you know...sounds kind of like Slamajon....I was excited to find this amongst the books.

I had been waiting for a few weeks (one book had to come from the States) and had forgotten I had ordered this little box.


It's my own little Flamingo Garden Set...complete with my own "grass".


Obviously, my flamingos have a bit of a way to go before they are like the ones in the book.
Oh well, everyone needs something to
work towards, right? Right.





In the little handbook, along with party ideas were some flamingo worthy drink recipes. Me thinks we may be trying one or two of those.




Crazy Flamingos...just standing there...ignoring the drinks and I can't believe that not one of them is playing the ukulele!!


After dinner, I brought them back here to my escape room computer area.


I let them alone for a bit....to get used to the new surroundings.


The gang that has been here a while stood and watched....checking out the new birds...trying to figure out what was going on.
But pretty soon, the Beautiful Hulamingo (my personal favorite) took the first step and began to do a welcome dance for the new 'mingos.










Soon others who also live on the desk joined in and a party ensued.

It won't take long and those news guys? Yeah...they'll be just fine.
(If they could just get over the fence!!)
Happy Friday, everyone!!
I wish you all some crazy, imaginative thoughts today.
Have fun with them!!

When I see Flamingo's and a little white picket fence, it reminds me of the 1950's trailers with the little wings!! Great Story Koji I Loved it!!
