spring break in photos

Last week, I went to visit my best friend in Colorado over spring break. It was so warm that week! I laid out and even got a tan (crossing my fingers it will last a couple more months). We hung out just like old times, met each other's friends that live in the area, and ate ice cream. For some reason many of these photos involve food...it was too pretty looking to not photograph! Haha.

...we took photos on the gorgeous sunny day

....went out to eat

I think this was the best breakfast I've ever eaten. It was almost sad being too full to eat it all...

A red velvet pancake. Yes, you read that right.

...got our nails done and took pics on photobooth

...had Starbucks almost every day

Now it's back to reality and rain. It's the first day of spring (yay!) but the weather is far from it here - pouring rain and wind. I miss the Colorado sun so much, but more-so my bestie! I couldn't have had a better spring break. It was the perfect mixture of fun and relaxation.

Here are some more photos from the day:

We haven't seen each other in over a year - since last spring break - but it's amazing how nothing has changed! Well, a lot has happened over the year, but when we started talking, it was like we had never been apart. That's when you know it's BFFs, best friends forever!

Adventures In...Colorado: Part 2

Aww, friends.

After spending a few days in Colorado with my friend Jenn, (see part 1 of this Adventures In...) I realized a few things:

That it doesn't snow all over the state in March, and can even get pretty warm this time of year.

That I still really like chocolate. (Reese's + chocolate cake batter ice cream = gold).

That movies like Freaky Friday and A Cinderella Story never get old (Yes, Chad Michael Murray is still just as attractive as you thought he was back when you were thirteen.)

What does get old about those movies are the cell phones - technology has come a long way since the good ol' flip phone.

That Lady Gaga is way less intimidating than I thought.

That Travis Wall is an incredible choreographer. Wait, I already knew that. But still - he's amazing.

That when you have been friends with someone for a long time, it doesn't feel like you've spent any time apart, even though it's been a while.

Adventures In...Colorado: Part 1

Today I got to finally see my best friend Jenn at her new home in Colorado! While at Mellow Mushroom (a pizza restaurant, in case you were wondering), the song Ocean Avenue by Yellowcard - our be-YOND favorite song from the junior high days - came on. It was like the universe knew that we had reunited or something.

Our conversation was like this:
Jenn: "Do you realize what song is playing right now?!"
Me: "This song is so old! I remember listening to it over and over in junior high!"

Jenn: "2004. Get it."

Me: "2004 was like seven years ago. Woah."
Jenn: "Woah."

Then we sat there for a few moments, in sudden realization of how long ago 2004 was.

It is crazy how fast time flies by.
