Pretty in Periwinkle

For my mother in law's birthday we took her out

for a picnic in the lavender fields at sunset.

It was so dreamy.

There was a little bit of rain in the beginning

but it all provided the most gorgeous clouds

for the sunset and even a rainbow over

our heads as we lounged in the sweet

smelling sea of purple.

I got the menu items at Wild Oats Market (amazing)

-roasted bell pepper, salami, and

rotisserie chicken sandwiches

-Caprese Salad with fresh basil

-Spicy guacamole dip with thick homemade

tortilla chips

-Pistachios

-San Pallegrino

-Mojitos with fresh mint

And I finally got to use the incredibly cute picnic

basket that we got for our wedding. (why we havent

used it before is a mystery)

In the golden light we lit the candle on her birthday

margarita cupcake from Dipidee. We also got to try

a very tasty german chocolate cupcake as well.

Do you see the rainbow in the back of us to the left?

Just perfect.

Happy Birthday Mum!
