WWC - Opening and Spring

I'm baaaaaaaaack!
It was a wonderful visit with the Wifester's family and lots and lots of fun was had. We toured around town and played monopoly (did you know you don't get monopoly cash anymore? for reals, it's credit cards!) and played at parks all weekend. That means I had plenty of opportunity to catch some photos for the WWC this week!






The ever delightful and awe inspiring Etsy guru, Tink challenged us with the words Opening and Spring.
Here's my interpretations:
it takes a special OPENING to create these bubbles.



someone decided to block the OPENING to the last hole.



SPRING is time for hot pink toes!




and nothing says SPRING is in the air like the arrival of Mule Day!


and remember, if youre a joiner and want to play along, visit Tink for the 411...

Mellow Yellow Monday

MellowYellowMondayBadge




I decided to hop back in the saddle, so to speak with this week's Mellow Yellow Monday since I had a fun filled weekend of touring around with the in-laws and visiting Mule Day. Yup, you heard me right, Mule Day. Its an annual festival they have in a town here to celebrate the mule. It's a bit over the top what with all the mule art, mule hats, mule ear headbands, and mule inspired clothing, jewelry, and housewares. But it was fun nonetheless. The craziest thing I saw though, was an extremely large number of these guys walking around picking up the trash. Now, don't get me wrong, I love the idea, but I just think with that many people in attendance, all the children and retail goods, it may be a wiser idea to postpone sending these guys out to pick up trash until AFTER the festivities...

More photos from the excitement of Mule Day will be posted soon!
