I'm back with another Five on Friday. These are quickly becoming my favorite posts to put together!

Guys, how cute is this jacket? Y'all know my love for unicorns runs deep, and I've passed that on to Lily. When I saw this jacket I knew we needed it. The hood is detachable so if your little doesn't want to be a unicorn one day, no biggie.

I'm still reading Brene Brown's newest book, Braving the Wilderness, and it's so, so good. She is just oozing with wisdom. I'm trying to gain a little bit! :)

I also picked up a book by an author who is from my hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. It's called The Hate U Give, and it's a tough, but important, read about race and gun violence. A movie is being made about it right now.

Rob and I are heading to Carmel, California, in about 10 days. He has worked his tail off at work and was recognized as one of the top performers in his sector in the Southeast! I am really proud of him, and I'm of course excited that I get to tag along for the trip. I haven't been to California since I was in 11th grade and went on a youth group trip to Los Angeles (funny, right?). 

Anyway, we're staying at a beautiful resort there and have plans to go whale watching one day. We'll have a lot of free time as well, so if anyone has been there or has any tips, please let me know!

Completely random, but I'm all about the llama trend that's going on right now. They're just the cutest creatures. I saw this doormat online recently and nearly squealed. I can't imagine not smiling if I were greeted by those guys.

I got my hair colored a few weeks ago (to cover up the grey...wah!) and have been so happy with the results. It's so pricey, though, and in an effort to stretch out the time between appointments I stumbled upon L'Oreal's Magic Root Cover Up. It's so good, and application is easy as pie. It washes out with each shampoo, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it dries very quickly and doesn't rub off if you touch your hair.

I hope everyone has a great weekend! Hope to see y'all back here on Monday.

Easter Recap

I hope everyone had a happy Easter! We really had a wonderful few days. The girls were off on Good Friday and Easter Monday, and the laid-back days were just what we needed.

 

On Easter Sunday we went to church and had lunch afterwards with my parents. My mom prepared the yummiest lunch: ham, deviled eggs, potato casserole, corn casserole, buttery rolls, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. I'm still full! ;)

 

Picture overload below. Does everyone else feel like summer is knocking at the door? Once Easter is over I'm dunzo with school and schedules and am ready for longer days and less routine!

Selfie with my girls. We didn't get a family photo, and I'm kicking myself.

 

 Hadley's Easter basket.

 

 Lily's Easter basket.

 

 Go-time. They woke up so excited!

 

 They are wild about LOL dolls. Anyone else's girls love those little things?

 

 Hadley got Ada Twist, Scientist for Christmas, and it's one of her favorite books...Rosie Revere, Engineer is really cute too. I love the message the author delivers.

 

 

 

 

 I adore Lily's little profile, mostly because it looks the same now as it did on ultrasound pictures when she was still in my belly. Love her little upturned nose.

 

 

How great is this capture? The bunny left some Shimmer and Shine genies in their Easter eggs, and they were stoked. 

 

 

 

 Ready for church! Both dresses were Target (Cat and Jack) finds! Hadley's shoes are from Target, and Lily's sandals are from Gap Kids.

 

 

 

 My legs are so white...yikes! My dress is from J.Crew, and I got it a few years ago.

 

 

 

 

 Hunting eggs at Pop and J's house!

 

 

 

 Late afternoon egg hunting in our backyard. They could search for eggs all day long if I let them!

 

 Hadley rocking some short shorts. Her little legs are just the cutest! :)

So that's our Easter 2017. Hope all my friends had a happy day with their families as well! Did anyone else miss getting a family photo? I loved seeing everyone's on social media and can't believe I spaced. Oh well. Always next year, right? Enjoy your week, friends!
