Oh ladies you should see my moms yard. There are around 50-60 large pink flamingos all over the place. The yard the porch the driveway. Everywhere. And a big sign that says

The flocks
in shock
Penny's 50!!

Happy Birthday!!

I will take pictures and post them Monday or Tuesday. Sorry I am not with the times I have to use a film camera and get it developed.

LOL! Did you pay someone to do it?

Yeah there is a company here by my house that does it set up and pick up for $80. So my dad, brother and sister and I went in on it for her. She doesn't know who did it but she was telling me about it this morning and said the neighbors must have thought she was nuts standing in the middle of the street crying cause it was so funny.

That is hilarious! They must do it late, late at night.

Between 10pm-1am. My dad said she was there around 12am. He said it looks comical. 1 lady carrying flamingo's under her arms setting them up in the yard. He went out this morning and got a ton of pictures for me so now I don't have to.

My mom just called me a little bit ago she says If you know who did it ask them to see if my friends can stay until tomorrow I don't get to enjoy them please!! I told her I had no idea what she was talking about. I hung up with her and called the lady she is going to leave them until tomorrow evening so my mom can enjoy them.

LOL. Your mom sure is a good sport. It is such a cute idea. I'm glad she is enjoying them.

Aww, that's great! How cute that she wants them to stay there so she can enjoy them! What a great sport!
