Happy Easter!

I am spending Easter studying for Finals, I know sounds like a BLAST! However, I did manage to bake the bunny cake...which turned out to be a SCULPTED masterpiece of perfection! 

But I sure had fun making it despite my attempts at what resulted in a few slight mishaps:)

Hope you are all enjoying the day wherever you are!

The Perfect Trifecta

This past weekend was full of twists, turns, and roundabouts!  It was especially SPECTACULAR because we had three days off!!!

Thursday

Tara & I decided to kick off the weekend early with some classmates at  Taco Mac's... which oddly enough doesn't serve tacos, but sure knows how to serve up some AMAZING wings!

Saturday

Tara and I headed off to Virginia Highland so I could run the O'Highland Jig & Jog. We left about 6 am and hit some pretty rough weather on I-75. It wasn't until I finished the race that I discovered that downtown ATL was hit by a tornado... I thought it was pretty odd that so few people showed up for the race. Other than that, the race was fantastic! I ran it in the time expected and got to see a new part of the neighborhood.

(Look at all those bananas!)

Later that day, I got my hairs cut... It's a bit Carol Brady, but there is quite the story behind it and I appreciate what I ended up with!!!

Sunday

Lazy, but oh so BEAUTIFUL. I sat on the porch and studied until this enormous bee started a buzzin' his way towards me. 

Away to the Blue Ridge (Foothills) Mountains

Up Up and Away... our trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains. We encountered a bit of snow, what a wonderful treat for a weekend retreat!  

As promised here are some pictures:

Now it's time to hunker down and study like a mad woman for what will be the most trying finals week thus far. 8 exams in 4 days...truly "oh my!"

March 1st Madness

The BIG 26 & All it's Glory!

My oh My...What a great way to ring in 26... yet another even year!

25 brought many new life changing events, I'm excited to see what 26 has to offer...I'm sure it will be Equally if not more SPECTACULAR!

I must say this Birthday was pretty Awesome, top notch, in fact! I received so many wonderful birthday messages/gifts/wishes from the friends & the fam. It was so great to chat with some of my favorite people in the world on my birthday! What great people I have in my life, really couldn't ask for much more!!!
