flashback friday

back  in the olden days, my favorite part about easter was getting a new easter dress.

my mom would shop with me until i found something i love. (which wasn't easy) every year. 

bless her heart.

she even got me exactly what i wanted this year. (which turns out, wasn't a dress..because i couldn't find one that i love.) thanks mom! :)

i found this gem in my old pictures.

my twin brother, matt, and i dressed in our sunday best on easter.

and then i found these....

i remember that bow, and that day....

 and i remember i did not want him to kiss me.

thankfully, i now have a little bit better grasp of the whole easter thing. and it is one of my favorite days of the year. i thought i'd share one of my all time favorite talks. which was given on easter. it is something that everyone should read & think about this weekend.
