OHB Easter Egg Hunt
We don't have a lot of plans for this weekend, but the OHB Easter Egg Hunt is happening and it's always a fun time. Bobby opts to come along and learn a bit more about craft beer. All of the sampler glasses in the pic are his. Too funny.

Dallas Blooms w/Mister
This year has been challenging to find time to thoroughly enjoy Dallas Blooms. Some years we manage weekly visits and, yet, this year, not. I went with my niece last week and have finally made it here with my sweetie. The tulips are about gone, but the azaleas are FABULOUS. Enjoy the eye candy and I'll share some fun along the way. Upon our arrival, we were sent through a different gate for the early morning walk. At the front gate, people were lining up for an Easter event that included breakfast, pictures, and an egg hunt. This was our first view.

Mister's Bluebonnet Pictures - A Bit Behind
Mister's pictures from our 2024 Bluebonnet drive. His eye is always so cool. To compare to my picks - here is the LINK to my post. Enjoy.
2024 Bluebonnet Drive and Waxahachie
Apparently, the bluebonnets are making an early appearance in Texas and since we have some plans for the next two weekends, today is our day to hunt for them. At first we were worried that it was just too early, but . . . enjoy the eye candy. We did. (All my pics except where noted and I feel like bluebonnets would rather be seen with the eye than the camera - they see the lens and hide.)

Artiste at North Park Center
This just happened. An advertisement peaked my interest, I mentioned it to Mister, and when work was finished for the day - we made it happen. In case you can't read the sign: "Experience the artistry of flowers like never before in Fleurs de Villes ARTISTE, the bespoke floral exhibition on view in Texas for the first time at NorthPark Center. The exhibition features a curated collection of 15 one-of-a-kind fresh floral mannequins, all created by North Texas' most talented floral designers with themes chosen by the region's vibrant arts and cultural organizations. Each floral display distinctively showcases the featured institution, encompassing the disciplines of dance, music, theater, visual arts, and more.

Out and About - Shopping and Such
Upon my return to Dallas this morning, Mister and I were off for some breakfast upon my request. Dallas Diner it was and then we decided to hunt down a washing machine - or at least try to. We haven't been to Nebraska Furniture Mart up in The Colony. Perhaps this will work.
