Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real

I've been reading Our Mother's Daughters for months and months and have never gotten around to participating in their cute weekly post, Pretty Happy Funny Real. But this week I'm finally taking part and I couldn't be more excited. Without further ado, here is my first-ever edition of "Pretty, Happy, Funny Real."

My bedroom when it's tidy.

I find it so calming. Now if only I can keep it like that...

Flowers from my boyfriend! I put them on my dresser so I could share them with the Blessed Mother.

My family went out for a delicious buffet brunch on Easter Sunday. The buffet was amazing! They had every kind of breakfast food you could imagine, mounds of bacon and sausage, and even a chocolate fountain. Unfortunately, that gave my little sister Caroline some mischievous ideas. 

Because clearly nothing could be more delicious than bacon dipped in chocolate.

I made the New Year's Resolution to work out more and I was inspired by a great exercise tip from Pinterest: Buy yourself a calendar and give yourself a sticker on every day that you work out. I happened to have a free religious calendar from my parish lying around my room, so I put it to use. Except here is what the month of January looked like:

Yes, that's exactly two stickers, both shortly after New Year's. Hopefully I'll get back in the workout groove now that summer's coming!
