Missing Texas

I used to live in Waco.  Where Pat was from and hung out before he got famous.  His (early) songs were quintessential Texas and have and always will speak to my Texas Soul.
Funny side note.  My ex-husband designed the Billy Bob's logo.  Long, interesting story.

A face with an Afro

My across the street neighbors house has a face.  Even hubby saw it right away.  Can you see it?

No, not the bunny!  The "guy".
It's much brighter (and obvious) in person but this is the best my camera could do from across the street.

A cool video

I got this from my new blog friend over at Vintage South
Have loved Ray since he came on the scene.  Looking at him reminds me of James Taylor.
Enjoy

Yearning

Nasturtium.  In a jar of water yearning to be planted outside.

 Primrose.  Yearning to be pink.

We planted three primrose plants in the front flower bed.  They were all orange.  This one, however decided that it would rather be pink.  Perhaps it's because it is planted beneath the camellia bush that has pink blooms.

This is the color it started out as.  Not too pretty right now because it took a beating in the wind and rain we had yesterday.  Also, some critter ate all the first blooms and it's making a comeback.

Ahhh, spring color.  Need it now.  Tired of the rain.
Thanks for visiting and have a great day!
Hugs!!

Zombies

We've all seen them.  The decals on the back windows of mini vans and other family-type vehicles.  Stick figures of Dad, Mom, Kids and pets depicting the "family" unit.
But... this is the best so far!!!

Even the fish in the bowl got into the action! 
Pay no attention to my claw-like hands grasping the camera in the bottom of the pic.

Love this!  Mostly cuz it's better than different!
hugs!

Poppy

This ambitious little flower made its way up and out of a four foot hedge.  Can you imagine the stalk it's on?
Bloom where you're planted (or seeded).

 Right on little flower!  I admire you!

Eeek! There's a bear in my kitchen!!

Remember these guys?

Boo on the left and Henry on the right.  They were about 3 months old in this picture.

Henry.  A.K.A. The Bear.  17 months old, 67 pounds.  Good Grief.  I knew I should have named him Yogi!
Boo Boo is about 55 pounds and about 10" shorter.  Still...
When we're walking, people comment on Henry's size.  He has been mistaken for Bermease and Rottweiler.  But, no.  He's just an incredibly LARGE Aussie.
And soooo LOVEABLE!!!

Hugs!

P.S. We got a new dishwasher and refrigerator after this picture was taken.  Wonderful landlord!!!!
