FESTIVE FRIDAY FIESTA Link Party #3!

Hey Everyone!!!!

Greetings from DISNEYWORLD!

I would like to apologize for not commenting on everyone's posts, although I did look at each one.  We have taken the kiddos for a short trip to Disney for the week!  

Today we went to Epcot Center just in time for their "Flower and Garden Festival"  We got to see some GORGEOUS Flowers and even a pretty butterfly garden!

Here are some pics of the lovely florals they have at the park right now through Mid-May!

 Now THIS is flower arranging at its finest!!!

 The water was just shimmering as we walked by these lovely arrangements in this pond!

Can you believe all these characters are made out of plants and flowers?!?!   So inventive!!!

If you get a chance to get to Disney World, this is a great place to see some amazing flowers and plants at the Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot Center!  I'm not getting paid anything to say that, by the way....just sharing the wealth!

It's almost Friday!  And you know what that means!!!!

It's Time for the 3rd FESTIVE FRIDAY FIESTA!!!!!

But first....a few fantastic features from last week!

I was loving all the creativity I saw on these links!  You guys have some incredible blogs with some wonderful posts!   It was tough picking out just a few features....

But here are a few of the many that stood out for me!

Laurie from Simply Creating Home was a guest photographer at a WONDERFUL activity that I'm totally going to try to set up! 


It's called "POWER COOKING WITH FRIENDS" and it is a wonderful way for girlfriends to get together, and cook a bunch of family meals to freeze and use for their families!   I love this idea!

Jenna from The Painted Apron created this ADORABLE Bunny Garden Tablescape!  


I just love every detail she thought of to make this table just wonderful!  You'll also have to check out her "carrot garden dip" recipe she made that looks like a little carrot patch on this wonderful table!  I'm planning on making that dip for Easter!   I LOVE THIS whole table!!!

Desiree from "Your Crafty Friend"  showed us how to make this very cute Mason Jar Door Hanging to hang her fresh flowers! 


What a cute idea!  And the instructions are very simple and straightforward!

And the post with the most views this week is this beautiful St. Patrick's Day Hors D' Oeuvres Table from Laurie at Bargain Hunting and Chatting with Laurie!



What a fun and festive table to enjoy some St. Patty's Day Hors D'oeuvres!

    Disney World?!??!!! You go, girl! That sounds like fun for the whole family! I've been to Disneyland 2 or 3 times in my life, but never Disney World. I'm sure it's gorgeous with all the flowers...it's like the Rose Parade all in one place! :-)

    Have a good time, be careful, and get back safe!

      Hi Alycia! It is really great! I went once when I was 12 and then never again until we moved to Florida a few years ago! Now we have passes so we can go often and bring the kids. They just love going too! It was a lovely sight to see Epcot with all those flowers! Thanks so much for linking up! Hope you had a great weekend! =D

      Hi Christine! I just love it too...I really wish we would have had time to check out more of what they had to offer at that flower and garden show at Epcot, but the rest of the family was all about the rides..haha! They have updated lots of things at the parks which was nice because we got to do a few things we hadn't done before. Thanks again for linking up another gorgeous table and your BEAUTIFUL backyard and garden!
