Spring In All Its Floral Glory!
Happy Visible Monday,
everyone! I hope you had a wonderful
holiday weekend! It was our first year
with no children in the house, no Easter candies, and no special Easter meal…kind
of weird. Cherish your memories…the time
flies by!
everyone! I hope you had a wonderful
holiday weekend! It was our first year
with no children in the house, no Easter candies, and no special Easter meal…kind
of weird. Cherish your memories…the time
flies by!
Today, I am celebrating the floral
colors of spring! Don’t they just make
you smile! Smiling, joy, laughter,
kindness…they are all choices we make every day. And, yes, they are contagious. My day will go so much better if I smile through
it and not let the lady who cut in front of me in the grocery line, or the car
that almost ran me off the road, or the student who refuses to listen to
instructions get to me. When those types
of things do start to steal my joy, it is time to power down and relax for a
while. That is exactly what I did this weekend!

Do you really take time to smell or
even enjoy the roses? It is time you
did. Go for a walk and linger a moment
where the flowers are blooming… it will make a difference.

Happy Monday! |
Thanks for the flowers, Pam. They, and you, are lovely. Your new shoes are so cute and such a great deal! Thanks for sharing with Visible Monday.
Pam–I hope your Easter was a happy one in spite of the changes! I love how you have used two scarves in this outfit. And for the walk through your neighborhood. I took a walk with the grandson yesterday…and we found a dollar bill that had gone through a lawn mower!?
First and foremost Pam, thank you so for the kind words on my blog…it is so nice to know I am not alone!
Even though I still have two teenage sons at home, this was our first year without any Easter 'celebration' as they both had their own activities, and my husband who…i too am trying to embrace my next phase…but realize…some days it does come with tears…
I so appreciate you…and the positive energy you put out ..for all of us!
Gorgeous colors and gorgeous smile. You brighten my day!
I am glad that your Easter down-time was a good one. It is always nice just to relax and enjoy your surroundings. I was in your lovely city today. I live in Dallas. We are childless and had no plans for the holiday, so we hopped in the car and headed south. I love your part of Texas and while different from your city, and mine; we are considering a move to Austin. We really like it there (and those San Marcos outlet stores)
Gorgeous colors and lovely flowers. Know what you mean about empty nest Easter. Less work but awfully quiet.
That is some eye-popping color! The flowers are absolutely beautiful. Your scarf and top combo is just perfect for spring.
Pam I adore your outfit you look great! Love Chicos!Wonderful words of inspiration!
You are one the winners of my Giveaway from Cross Bottle Guy! Yay!! Send me your mailing info and I will put you in touch with Artie as well!

Thank you so much for all the flowers in your post.
We are wearing similar yellow- green lime.
Much love.

Oh all the flowers are beautiful! And I love your strong cheerful colors. They way you put them together just makes me smile. I still sometimes miss the Easter celebration. We did see my grandson this weekend, but their family doesn't "do" easter, so it was just another sunday dinner, not that there is anything wrong with that.
Love how you twisted the two scarves together! The colors here look amazing…and you look great!
Holy smoke, love the colors in this outfit. I don't usually like crop pants, but you look very elegant in these.
I was just going to say you have a green thumb, but then read your flowers are courtesy of your neighborhood 🙂 They are beautiful. So are the flowers on your scarf! Happy spring. It's finally here; my favorite time of the year.

You look so pretty in your spring colors! And those florals on your scarf is just as pretty as the ones in your garden! Couldn't agree with you more, sometimes we really need to just slow down and enjoy our day instead of trying to get through it to get to the next one….Hugs girly! ~Serene
What a beautiful neighborhood you live in! Reflected in you twisted scarves. You are wearing spring in all its glory!
love that scarf!
I love your whole combination of colors! The orange border on the scarf is a great design decision on somebody's part — oh wait, it's TWO scarves!!! brilliant! (I never thought of combining two scarves… oh boy, things just got more complicated in SpyGirl land). I love how they bounce off the lime top. Yummy!
Thanks for all the flower pictures. I'm cooped up inside in an office space with no windows and you gave me a touch of the outdoors. >deep breath!<
I love the scarf(ves)…just gorgeous. Well done! Fabulous way to celebrate the spring especially will all that color!
love the double scarf look and your use of color
great flower shots

Such pretty colors, Pam. You sent me into my closet trying to find 2 scarves that would work well together like you've shown here. I think I may have found something. Yay! Thank you for your inspirition of fashion and attitude.
Loving the bright color on you, really, really wonderful – and inspiring to the new-to-color crowd like me 🙂
Your scarf is beautiful. And so are you! Thank you for sharing all the lovely flower photos with us. xo
I love everything about this post…the scarf…the ring..the flowers!
I was going to be sad about an empty-nest Easter, but then my sister-in-law invited us over for Easter dinner, and it wasa wonderful.
Blessings,

Gorgeous pictures and i LOVE the outfit!! I never thought of twisting 2 scarfs together like that!!
These are gorgeous flowers and your idea of twisting two scarves together looks great!
Gorgeous colors!
What fabulous colours in your outfit! It's so cheerful and happy!
I love the vibrancy of those two scarves playing off each other — really enlivens your whole look!
very pretty outfit! I like the vibrant and refreshing colors of springtime blossoms. The floral print on your scarf is pretty! Looks lovely against the yellow top. Thanks for reminding me to cherish the kids while they are still around. It does feel different without the kids especially during the special holidays.

Interesting idea putting the scarves together.
You have such a lovely nail shape! Is it weird of me to notice that?
Spring, at last!
You look bloomin' fantastic in your floral brights! the Citizen Rosebud
Pam, I love that bouquet of flowers twisted with that vivid tangerine. An inspired scarf idea. I love the title of this post, but it would be difficult to say ten times really fast!
You look absolutely gorgeous today!! I love the colors on you!! The scarf is SO perfect!
Thank you for the flowers ~ brightened up my morning!
