Happy Spring to you all! The blossoms are blooming, the sun is shining, and life is dandy! I tried to go with a “theme” of sorts for this week’s newest editions to The Curvy Elle Shop. It was time for a little pastel color overload! And, this is just part of all the pastel items I photographed! Expect some more for next week!

March is the month for birthday’s in my family. It feels like every week it’s someone else’s special day. Not to mention it’s my half  birthday. Yes, I did say half birthday! 

The story behind celebrating my half birthday, goes back to when my brother and I were little. My brother is almost exactly 5 and a half years older than me. When I was little and didn’t understand why my brother was getting gifts but I wasn’t. My grandmother would always buy me something special too–for my half birthday. On my birthday my brother would get a half birthday gift too. This tradition continued on well into our adult hood, for long after we understood the meaning of birthdays. You gotta love grandparents!
