COLOR-MAD WEDDING-CRASHER TURNS 60!

As if our San Antonio trip and my 5-day Art Camp weren't enough of a birthday hoo-hah, our BFF couple, for nigh on 40 years now, came to Wimberley this weekend to help finalize my big 6-0 celebration. Mostly we did some really good eating, and a whole lot of this: 

Somebody's tellin' a whopper!

Toad and John Boy drove into town at one point, for more provisions, and when they got back they told us that they could hear us girls laughing from way across the creek! It was that kind of weekend.

After they left on Sunday, we headed out to Driftwood Vineyard to meet up with the Wino Gang and some Aussie pals. Being the best weather month of the year here in central Texas, this is the prime  season for outdoor weddings. We arrived at the winery just in time to see one wedding ending, and another cranking up.

I thought the groomsmen looked adorable in their jeans with suspenders, chambray shirts, and slender grey neckties. Never got to see all the bridesmaids in a group, but from the occasional one flitting hither and yon, it looked like they were all wearing cute short dresses with sort of a home-made-from-heirloom-scraps-look, in shades of ivory, peach and coral. Plus there was one gal -- not sure if she was a guest, maid of honor, wedding planner, or what -- wearing a cute blue denim dress with a really full skirt puffed out with lots of petticoats. Looked to be a fun, fun wedding!

And now, since it's Color-Mad Monday, I give you this:

One of the business owners in town always has this fabulous old truck parked out front.

Is that a gorgeous patina, or what?

Last but not least, the pink Muhly is in bloom!

 

 

Happy Birthday To Me!
