On Easter Sunday we celebrated our risen savior and my 29th birthday. The rain altered our plans a bit so later in the week David took a day off to satisfy our hankering for a picnic. We packed up a feast (pimento cheese on focaccia, goat cheese and pear kale salad, boiled eggs, and key lime pie!) and headed to the park where we got married. The weather was perfect and our time being lazy and enjoying the sun on our skin was a delight. I’m happy and grateful to be another year older with my dear husband by my side. Life isn’t what we hope for in every way, but I feel more confident as the years go by–more like myself, more comfortable in my decisions, my body, what I do and love, things I have struggled a lot with in the past. I’m looking forward to another year of being sure of who I am and Whose I am.

Speaking of confidence, I stepped outside my shy, reserved box to do a Q&A for Style Bee about my personal style and shopping independent!
