1.  What is your favorite thing about spring?

The bright colors, probably.  I'm really a total fall kinda girl, but I do love when the colors start brightening up.  Like my nail polish, for instance.  Right now, I'm wearing Trout Pout by Butter London:

2.  What is your favorite kind of flower to grow or receive?

Well, I've definitely never grown them, and I don't even remember receiving them, but my favorite flower is the hydrangea.  I do love a good bouquet of roses, though.  I've never grown those, either, but my grandpa grows them in his backyard, and they are so beautiful.

3.  What is your favorite nail polish color?

I honestly didn't know this was one of the questions when I answered #1.  Haha...  Even though I do love Trout Pout, my favorite color ever is Blowing Raspberries by Butter London.  It's this great hot pink/bright red color.  Kinda hard to describe, but it's beautiful on.  It's a pretty transitional color, too.  It works for about any season.

4.  What is your favorite outdoor activity?

I really like biking.  This is the perfect time of year to go, too.  Summer is wayyy too hot here.  You have to be a crazy person to be outside, so spring and fall are my favorite times to be outdoors.  I become a hermit in the summer.  No joke, y'all.

5.  Do you have any fun spring plans?

Well, since this is my spring break, I plan to head to Atlanta with friends for a few days and visit Pebble Hill Plantation in Thomasville, GA, with my mom.  I also have a fun baby shower to host in a few weeks for my sweet friend Karen.  And...I'll be heading up to see Taylor Swift on her Red Tour in mid-April.  I know... I'm officially 13 years old.  

Other than that, I'll be counting down the last 9 weeks of this school year and waiting for SUMMER BREAK!!!  Teachers are far more excited about break than the kids.  

Trips Down 30A

I'm always torn on the weekends between my love of sleep and my desire to get out and have some fun.  This weekend was not a sleeping weekend, which is all well and good, since spring break is only a week away, and I know I'll get plenty caught up then.  Fingers crossed...

With my little sis in town this weekend, my family decided to load up the bikes on Saturday morning and head over to Seaside/Watercolor to do a little scenic riding.  If you've never heard of Seaside before, you don't know what you're missing.  It's funny because I've lived about 45 minutes away from there my whole life but never knew how popular it really was until the past few years.  Since I started blogging, I've found post after post from others sharing about their love for Seaside, and it just really hit me that it's a paradise destination for so many people, and I'm blessed enough to go whenever I want!  The older I get, the more and more I appreciate where I'm from.  I never did growing up, but I'm glad it's finally sinking in now.  Maturity?  Yikes!  That's a scary thought...

Anywho, we all loaded up and headed there bright and early (and by bright and early, I mean 10:30).  By the time we got there, it was time to eat, so we tried out The Great Southern Cafe.  Holy moly.  It was uhh-mazing.  Seriously, so good.  I had the Grits A Ya Ya, which is basically gouda cheese grits with shrimp, shallots, mushroom cream sauce, and sweet potato straws.  It's the house specialty, and it did not disappoint.

Ok, I'll shut up and just let the pictures do the talking...

FYI, we did most of our actual riding in Watercolor, where there were awesome bikes paths and less traffic.  Seaside is a great place to bike, too, but we pretty much fell in love with biking in Watercolor.  So much fun!
