Easter 2013

what a great holiday! a celebration of a risen savior? i mean, c'mon! not to mention, everyone seems to look so attractive on easter. i couldn't help but notice, as everyone was leaving church on sunday, it looked like one big lilly pulitzer ad. i really wish people looked like that all of the time! 

i happen to dress like that as often as possible. bright colors? yes! florals? yes! big hair? hell yes! 

not the best selfie. i was having a GREAT hair and makeup day. praise the lord!

oh, and there are presents & candy! here are the baskets i prepared for my mom, dad, and talulah grace. mom's was full of beauty samples & a lilly pulitzer note pad, dad's had Les Mis (all the candy was at their house, so i filled it up once i arrived.), and sweet wigala's had a new toy, bone, and rachel ray treats! 

my best friend invited me to City Church's service at the Civic Center. what a blessing to have such a great church in our great city of Tallahassee. They have a true calling to serve not only our maker, but our city! WHAT....a concept. i'm excited to get more involved with this great church!

after Easter service, we hopped (ha! a post Easter pun!) over to Cabo's for their bunch and 2/1 mimosas. YA'LL, if you live in Tallahassee and have not been to their brunch, i don't know what you are doing with yourself. so, so, so yummy. best of all, its super affordable! 

Ashlyn & I at brunch. I am so thankful for such a great friend! She has been inviting me for YEARS. i was so glad that i finally went! We are such good friends that, this is our ONLY picture together. seriously! it's an easter miracle...i went to church + took a picture with my bffaeaeae. 

What a great Sunday! 

Side note: look at this beautiful flower that sprouted in my back yard. i came home and couldn't believe it! i also have a rose bush that you can kind of see in this picture. i really want to try to keep it alive this summer! add it to the list of goals, folks.
