St. Patrick Weekend at my sister's

We are heading to Baton Rouge, LA for St. Pats!  

Remember last year's parade weekend?  I'll update you with more fun pictures when we get back.

Blow up Irish Betty, she gets lots of beads.  Lynley got an Irish Potato!

This float says it all "Swamp Irish".  The beads,  the spanish moss, a porta pottie on the float ( a necessity ).  See the guy with the stuffed alligator throw he is motioning one of my cute daughters to come and get the special throw.  Only those go to really cute babes.  

I CAN'T WAIT - Get to Baton Rouge this weekend if you can!  

Spring is in the air and everything is yellow

Spring 2012 has arrived.

The rose spills over the fence gate.

This is inside the back yard, same rose.

Azalea is on the downside, but still beautiful.

The wild fern is back.

As well as the Asian fern.  This guy stays little but is colorful and beautiful.

The Japanese Maple shades the Asian fern.  The pollen from the native Texas oaks are what makes everything have a yellow dusting in our yard.

The ajuga ground cover is blooming and spreading.  

The azalea that never blooms is blooming!

The tree ferns are tripling in size, remember no hard freeze this past winter.

Up next St. Pat's Weekend.

Coffee lovers of the world

Who would have thought my most pinned pin is the below quote?!  Coffee makes the world go round and relates to a lot of pinners.  See my pin here.  Found this little gem here.  Thanks Lynn, at Happier than a Pig in Mud.  You may notice a big blip on your blog link today.

Brewing while I pin.  

Rock our World

Taking a blogging, pinning break.  We are catching up on movies and TV shows right now because we got one of these!

Apple TV

Wireless and streams anything we can get from our Netflix account to our TV!  No more watching movies on the computer or ipod thing.  I love living with new technology and having a child still living at home that knows about these things.

Sorry, got to run and catch up on some Downton Abbey episodes!

It can be yours for about the cost of two to three movie/dinner date nights.
