currently snacking on | Chocolate Cupcake with Peanut Butter Frosting

0 Comments

My husband is a good, good man. He knows me so well and pretends not to care most of the year…but then when it counts, (Mother’s Day), he whips out the big guns. Not only do I LOVE chocolate, but I equally LOVE peanut butter. Well, this good, good man of mine went to the best cupcakery in town and bought me a dozen cupcakes. Some were chocolate with chocolate frosting, some were red velvet, some were chocolate with pink frosting (Addison picked those…who’s have guessed). But, in the mix were the Chocolate with Peanut Butter Frosting! YES, Peanut Butter Frosting! That’s like something from my dreams. Easily the best cupcake I ever had.

The Royal Wedding | What a Sweet Moment

0 Comments

I have to admit…I was a little disgruntled about the Royal Wedding. Thinking…ugh, is it over already. It was so overplayed with the media that it seemed like I couldn’t go 10 minutes without hearing about it. BUT then the day comes and it really is beautiful…and the true meaning comes out. Not what she wore, or who was there (or wasn’t there!). Two people vowing to share their lives. The sweetest moment was when the new married couple and all the little ones in the wedding party went on to the balcony and looked up to the heavens in honor of his mother, Princess Diana.

You can almost see the love shining down on them.

I also love that the little flower girl is so innocently covering her ears there in the bottom left! Adorbs.

Did you watch it? What was your favorite moment?

Spring is in the air! Welll…in most places. I think we skipped it and went straight to summer here. My favorite spring color is pink and I thought I’d share some of my very favorite photographic prints in pink…of course!

I love all of these ladies and the vintagey feel of their images. I could frame all of them and surround myself in faux spring.

With all of the pretty pink we were inspired to paint Addie’s nails like this:

Pink Flower Nail Polish {please note that I am not a nail art guru! I totally cheated with the little flower nail stickers }

And to make a pink hair flower like this:

And drink a pink strawberry cream ice drink like this:

And watermelon and bare feet are sure signs of spring…

What did you do today? I hope you got to enjoy a little spring…
