I always try and start my day by moving my body. A quick run in the morning helps me clear my head. Puma put out a new line of workout gear. You can check out this Puma Swan pack HERE. (Dick’s Sporting Goods).

While Sunday was a bit grey and rainy this year, the kids’ faces shined just as brightly as ever as they darted back and forth across Aron’s parents’ lawn in search of eggs.

Here are some photos of the fun…

The kids came into our room early—as usual. We’d just started asking Hudson this past week to be dressed for school before breakfast, so I was so surprised when he came into the room already in a button-down shirt I’d laid out the night before. He really dislikes button-downs, so he seemed especially proud that he’d still gotten ready in it.

It’s hard to keep the Easter morning baskets in check when you make last-minute Target runs, so they got a few actual gifts this year instead of candy. We shared the credit with the Easter bunny.

That face Skyler is making? That’s her “my brother is so awesome, he knows how to use a bubble gun” face. There’s about to be a thumbs-up sign.

Here’s the part where the photos get really gratuitous, because I just can’t pick a favorite.

I asked them to show me their favorite pose. Hudson’s is sort of robot-ninja-esque and Skyler did a spin. She calls any dress that sort of puffs out a tutu. “It got a tutu!”

Aron and Skyler helped with Swedish-style cardamom rolls while I played Easter bunny in the yard.

When the other kids arrived, we sent them out right away to try and beat the rain—which they didn’t mind at all! We had three around Skyler’s age, so they got a 20-second head start. Nonetheless, not one managed to snag a single egg in that time! The difference between the little and big kids’ pace never fails to surprise me!

Not to worry, however. There was plenty of loot to go around!

Hope those of you who celebrated had a happy Easter!

P.S. Last year.

Last month I talked about my dress code and how it’s defined by my personal feminine style. Regardless of what I’m dressing up or down for, or where I’m heading, it always remains the core of what I’m drawn to. I’m quick to decide on what I like and I know almost immediately whether it’s a yes. Over the years, I’ve really figured out what I love and what’s true to me, regardless of what’s trendy, cool or in-season.

One of the reasons why I love partnering with Express (and I’ve been working with them for a few years, but have shopped at their store even longer than that), is that even though they have many pieces that are very of-the-moment and trendy, they still do the classic and feminine ones just as well. Time after time, I can always find something beautiful in their store that feels very “me”, like this blush maxi dress from their new collection with Karlie Kloss (who I absolutely adore!).

If you haven’t seen the whole collection, you should go check it out right now! It’s filled with great warm weather basics like this cropped denim jacket and this white blazer, but it also has the prettiest array of dresses like this blush dot one or this floral maxi print one. There’s also this black and white dot print maxi dress (similar to the one I’m wearing), but with short sleeves with little ties. They’re the kind of dresses that you just want to live in, especially on a warm Spring day.

Thank you to Express for sponsoring this post.
