The Grass is turning. Hooray!!!
Hello Spring.
Hello Spring.
We could not be any happier that spring has arrived in Texas. Every day when Jason comes home, he comments more and more about how the grass is changing colors and he is so excited. We are going to Calloway's this weekend to get some new flowers for pots and extra filler plants for existing pots. I am so looking forward to planting this weekend. The weather here as been PERFECT. I couldn't have asked for better weather while I have been home enjoying my spring break. 70s-80s all week... I know you are jealous. All our family up north in the Midwest you really should move to Texas.. just an idea. :)
I have taken some pictures of our yard to show what is changing. Our neighbors have already beaten us to the punch and have their yards ready for spring. I hope everyone is enjoying the 1st day of spring, I know I am. 
The greens and yellows are so vibrant. I love it!

Hooray! My Hens and Chicks lasted through the winter. Goal for weekend: Find a new pot for them. They are growing like a weed... Crazy!
We recently planted 2 more rose bushes with the one that was already planted here. We are looking forward to great things from these three this year. These are on one side of our shed in our backyard. One of the left is Texas Yellow rose, the other 2 are Gorgeous Reds.
Later this spring, we will clean up this area and make it a full rose bed with edging and more plants.
Look what I found today. My Purple flowers are growing all around the shed. I have no clue what they are called. Very popular in Texas.
I love the color contrast here...
I have one Questions to ask all my decorator blog friends. What should i put in this pot for spring? What colors would look good by my front door. Currently I have a silk arrangement now, it's just so easy. I am open to real or silk for the next arrangement.
HELP? ANY IDEAS??
I hope everyone has a great weekend.

oooh I love all your flowers/plants! I wish Will and I could do that but we wont be moving into our house until July so I'm thinking if we tried to plant anything it would probably die in the TX heat. I've been getting some good inspiration for next year though!
For your front porch...I'm no expert but we were at Lowe's earlier and some pretty flowers I saw were ranaculous (sp?) and hydrangeas...idk how easy or difficult they are to maintain but they looked good!
I love this post, I am loving spring too!! I think you need something drapping over the pot, a long vine. Anything with color and if your front door gets all shade look for something that does well in the shade. I am sure you will do great and it will look beautiful!!
