Happiness

Aren't they precious? via Here

Spring Break

Bold & Bright

We all know I LOVE color, BUT do we know how obsessed I am with mixing all kinds of colors together? Let's just say I'm on a crazy person streak of buying color, color and more color...I might need an intervention soon. Oh, and as my neon post went live, I found a neon orange shirt. It's outstanding!!!

An Afternoon Stroll

Sometimes when the Beast hasn't had enough exercise, which lately is becoming the annoying norm, we take a stroll in the 'hood with the camera. Here's what we see, hope you enjoy!

South Congress

I may be slow to the show, but I've noticed a plethora of wall art/graphics around South Congress. I thought I'd share. What cool things have you seen lately?

Leap Year

I have another color confession. I love neon, as in love-love. Neon yellow being my favorite. In case you're unaware, it's really big in fashion and design right now. Don't roll your eyes at me, it's fantastic!!! Yes, I know this will be short lived and I plan to relish in it while I can.

Be You!

via Pinterest

"There are many who are living far below their possibilities because they are continually handing over their individualities to others. Do you want to be a power in the world? Then be yourself. Be true to the highest within your soul and then allow yourself to be governed by no customs or conventionalities or arbitrary man-made rules that are not founded on principle."
~Ralph Waldo Trine

Happy Mardi Gras

It's Fat Tuesday, big day in the Big Easy. I loved it when I was at LSU during this time of year...we were out of school on Holiday. Of course Mardi Gras is a holiday, duh! And no this didn't count as our spring break.

Movement

via Pinterest
"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."

What To Do

When your Mom and Sis come to town for one day, and it's raining the entire day...


 You drive them around in the rain showing them the various neighborhoods and Austin-y type things, then make a stop at Target. Odd I know, but my parents don't have a Target in their town so it really was super exciting. Once everyone is sick of riding around in the rain you do the following until its time to go to dinner...

Round Things

I have a deep love for circles and round things. Perhaps, it's because there's no beginning or end point. It just keeps going kind of like life. Or the silly childhood song that just won't quit, "the wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round." I have a friend that used to sing that when we did speed work around the track. Talk about stuck in your head...

Above is a house down the street from me. I'm yet to get a really good pic. It's hard to capture the entire yard. Amazing amounts of yellow.
