easter 2012

this year's easter was spent our style. instead of spending time fixing up a glamorous meal (that's expected by society), we went a different route. we had 2 couples over and got to enjoy spring rolls (self-made), an indian appetizer, a vietnamese dish, and some fried rice. it was a nice day out, so we got to eat outdoors and just have good intellectual convos. then we played games. low-key and not a lot of prep time = our type of holiday celebration.

my bday: 4.4.12

totally forgot to mention that i turned 27 on 4.4.12! it was a quiet birthday (by choice). dp and i got to attend our first christian music concert together; we saw third day. it was an exciting experience. next time i'll probably opt for more of a lower key band. third day is rock-type and so it was quite loud. nonetheless, i enjoyed it. on my bday we tried out a new laos/thai restaurant which was yummy. lastly, i was treated to a massage :) everything was all that i wanted, so i was happy.

wall of love

one of my diy projects included putting together a variety of photo frames to create a compilation that worked for our hallway. when you enter our hallway, this is the wall you are faced with. i wanted it to be filled with photos of loved ones and inspirational words. i am happy with the result!
