Crazy & Wonderful Life {Personal}

Well, I have had a pretty crazy week. Spanish test, Chemistry test, & Math test are done. School is almost over--two more weeks. I am so excited. So excited to be free from homework, exams, and stress.

This week has been so crazy busy and stressful, but it was all worth it because tomorrow I leave for New York City for an early birthday trip with my Madre. I love New York City (which I am sure you all know from my frequent posts about it! ;)) I can't wait to shop, walk around Central Park, see Phantom of the Opera on Broadway (one of my dreams!), be in Time Square, go to some fabulous vintage shops, etc. What can I say..I adore ADORE cities.

But, let me just say I really don't like packing. I always forgot something and I wish I could just pack up my whole wardrobe to ensure I won't forget a thing. Oh well. I am trying to pack light but I pretty much fail.

My bed is swamped with stuff I need to pack. Ahh!

And it doesn't help that I am exhausted because I got up at 5 a.m. this morning to watch the royal wedding--but it was worth it..soo worth it. Yes, I know most of you think I am crazy but I just could NOT miss this wedding. I have always been fascinated with the royals ever since I was little. I think it started when I found some books when I was around 7 all about Princess Di. The books were full of pictures after pictures of Di at her wedding, honeymoon, and every other event you could think of. I used to look at the books with my friends when we had sleepovers and we would laugh about the funny clothes or "ohh" and "ahh" over Di's gorgeous evening dresses.

The wedding today was so beautiful, and I absolutely loved Kate's dress! Her dress was complete perfection--regal, classy, & timeless. I also loved the dress her sister wore.

The little flower girls were also adorable. I love the little girl's face in the second photo--priceless. :)

I have a couple pics from Easter Sunday last week also. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter full of joy celebrating our Savior's Resurrection! I spent it with my relatives and it was lovely. I love everything about Easter and the weather this year was perfect. I was happy I could wear my Easter dress without being too chilly. :) Oh, and can I just say that pearls are my new favorite thing ever. They are classic and pretty much go with everything--the perfect way to dress up a outfit.

I also adored the necklace my mom wore. I love all the little details & the peachy pinks & vibrant purples.

Easter is pretty much picture time in the Jackson household. :)

I got portraits of all my siblings.

My two youngest siblings brought out there bubbles from their Easter baskets and it made for cute pictures. :D

Oh, and one more random thing! My friend, Abby, came over a couple of days ago and we decided to make inspiration boards for our rooms. I made two more today and here is a quick pic of how I arranged them on my wall. I love inspiration boards--the more pics the better. :)
