03.27.10 Dallas Blooms

We went to the Arboretum today to see "Dallas Blooms" in all its glory.  It was a beautiful day, sunny and 74 degrees!  The tulips are blooming and the entire park smelled wonderful.

Here are a few more of my favorite photos from today.

03.26.10 Park

It was Round-Up at our office today.  Juan came after and helped us finish off the left over beer.  Then we met our friends, Jim and Sarah, at Park for dinner and drinks.  This particular drink was called a "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha".  It was a good night.

Anniversary Card

This card I made for my husband for our 1st year anniversary.  I wrote all of the reasons I love him on the little tags. 

03.25.10 Necklace

Juan and I had a small argument last night over our families and he hurt my feelings.  Today, when I arrived home from work, he had a gift waiting for me to apologize.  It was an adorable necklace that was handmade by a co-worker of his.  What a sweet, sweet man!  He is just too good to me. 

03.24.10 Rain Rain Go Away

It poured cats and dogs this evening.  When, oh when, is Spring going to arrive?

03.23.10 Downtown Dallas

Tonight was another theater ticket evening; we saw "Fat Pig".  It was really good and Juan said it was his favorite so far this season.  There is actually a trilogy of plays called the Beauty Plays.  Our season tickets only included one show, but we enjoyed it so much that we are going to purchase the other two separately.  I highly recommend.  Prior to the show as we were walking to the theater from dinner, I asked Juan to stop and was able to frame him in front of the downtown Dallas skyline.

03.22.10 1st Anniversary

Today was our 1st year wedding anniversary.  This first year has flown by.  It seems like it was only a couple of months ago that I was walking down the aisle.  We have been blissfully happy this year and I only pray that our closeness continues to grow.  We do still have wedding cake in the freezer, believe it or not, but we received a free anniversary cake from Delicious Cakes....so we got to celebrate with a little sweet goodness as well as a delicious lunch at Al Biernets.  I love you Juan!

Birthday Cards

I seemed to have a whole bunch of birthdays coming up, so I created about a dozen birthday cards a couple of weeks ago.  I used a Close to my heart kit and then jazzed them up a bit with stickles, pop-dots, ribbon, staples, etc.

03.21.10 Snow Again

We awoke this morning to between 6-8" of snow, again.  They predicted flurries yesterday, but I never dreamed we would see this much white stuff in March!  That is just crazy nuts, but I'm sure it will be gone tomorrow.

A couple more shots.

Spring is Here - NOT!

I was so excited Friday afternoon because I noticed that our little front patio garden was beginning to show signs of Spring with little green buds.  I woke up this morning to find these same little green buds completely covered in about 6" of snow!  This is DALLAS, TX......for goodness sakes.  This time last year I was in a strapless gowns out on lawn getting married in the beautiful afternoon sun with green grass everywhere....come back Spring.
