Monday Mix Up: Easter!

Monday, April 21, 2014


Hello friends!

It's so refreshing to start another week after Resurrection Sunday. What a great day we had celebrating our risen Savior!  

Our Easter weekend celebrations actually began Saturday night when we had my cousins and their daughter over to color Easter eggs.  Let me tell you, coloring eggs with two toddlers is not for the faint of heart!  Our strategy was to have Graham and Sawyer sit on top of the island while we helped them dunk the eggs into the cups.  I'd say it was successful for the most part.  Only a couple of cracked eggs and nothing spilled!



(Don't mind my extremely tan face, I just got a spray tan that afternoon.)

Sunday morning we woke up to discover that the Easter Bunny left some eggs behind for Graham!  He enjoyed throwing and cracking the real eggs so we snatched those up quickly.  He got the hang of putting the eggs in his basket in no time.






There's nothing quite like Easter Sunday at church.  We had a packed house at East Pointe and it was a wonderful time of worship!  We are so blessed to serve a risen Savior!  

After the service there was an Easter egg hunt in the soccer fields.  It was a joy to see how excited all of the kids were.  At first Graham was confused about what was going on but after coaxing him onto the fields, he loved it.  He was so cute picking up the eggs and putting them into his basket.  There was an Easter Bunny too and Graham was chasing him around.  That really surprised me since those strange bunny costumes always freaked me out.  

My Easter dress is now available online here!




This picture cracks me up!




After church we went to my parents' house for a delicious meal.  My mom sure knows how to cook!  Of course we had to take some family pics while we were there.  Here are a few of my favorites.


Dusty managed to sneak into that one!


The guys. Graham looks less than thrilled, haha.

Graham also tried peeps at Mimi's and apparently he likes them!



I hope you all enjoyed your Easter, we sure did!  
Have a great week!

Fab Finds Friday: $50 & Under Easter Dresses

Friday, April 4, 2014



Hi Friends!

I apologize for the late post tonight.  I had multiple appointments today that I couldn't miss.  Now on to the fun!  One of my absolute favorite holidays is Easter.  First and foremost I love Easter because it's a time to celebrate our Savior who is risen and alive!  What a powerful message that is.  Not only did He die for you and me but He dwells among us.  He is there whenever you need Him.  He will never leave you.  Whew, gives me chills! :)

My second favorite thing about Easter is seeing everyone's beautiful, bright new outfits!  What's even better is getting said outfits for a steal.  That's why I searched high and low for my favorite Easter dresses for $50 & under for all of you.  I especially love this color block dress from Daisy & Dukes and it's only $36.  Now the tough part is deciding which dress to get! 

Oh and I can't forget my third favorite thing about Easter - CANDY!!  I actually gave up candy for Lent so I'm super pumped for Easter to get here so I can cram those sweet tart bunnies in my mouth!

I hope you all enjoy your weekend.  If you live in Jax come see me at the yard sale at East Pointe Church on Kernan from 8-1 tomorrow.  I'll be selling lots of my clothes!
