Review: Makeup Brush Cleaner

Morning Everyone,  Today I thought I would share an awesome product review with you all! As you all probably know I am a makeup addict. I love it all and I have a massive collection.  The one downside to loving makeup?  Cleaning Dirty Brushes.  I clean my brushes fairly regularly and it is always a hassle. It takes a long time especially if you want to be sure they are...

Weekend Recap: Fall is Coming!

Saturday: We decided to get out of the house for a bit and headed up north to check out the "McDonald's of the Future". It was pretty nice all in all. The touch screen order system was cool but the Mom in me kept thinking about germs....and while they are currently offering unlimited fries we did not partake in that. Kyra really enjoyed the play place, which was pretty cool.  She is so cute....

You are real and that is wonderful.  It's never too early to start prep for Halloween and Christmas.  Being...

Weekend 8/20-8/21

Saturday: We decided to take Kyra to the movies and have a little family fun time. We saw Kubo and the Two Strings and it was really enjoyable. I love that they showed some of the animation process at the end of the film. So much work goes into stop animation but it was really beautiful to watch and the story was good.  After the movie we headed home and Robert's brother came over. We were...

My small mountain

  Today would have been my due date.  I wasn't sure what I should do about the date. It feels like a small mountain I have to climb and get past. Part of me wants to just let it slip by but it is going to be on my mind anyhow....honestly it is always on my mind.  The baby that isn't.  The thing is, after a miscarriage everyone is supportive....until they are over it. Then...

Things I believe this week

 I need to work on my self care more. Yesterday I spent the day on the couch with a heating pad due to a pulled muscle in my back. I keep telling myself I need to get in a massage to take care of the stress I am carrying around in my back but I also keep putting it off.  Mani/Pedi should start becoming a more important part of my weekly routines. My toes look fine but my fingernails...

Musical Confessions

I confess that pretty much anything musical will get stuck in my head.....for years. I confess that while driving the other day I suddenly remembered all the words to Walker Texas Ranger's opening theme. What is that? WHY? I confess that because of setting it to a musical rhythm I can say the alphabet backwards without any trouble at all. I confess that I was in several musicals in...

Creature Comforts

I saw this post last week on Steph's blog and I thought it was just really fun and I love reading about the things that people enjoy just because they enjoy them. Self care is so important and I see nothing wrong with being just a little selfish and just plain liking STUFF!  Here's a few of my little comforts.... Makeup- yes you all saw this one coming but seriously makeup makes me happy....

Thursday Thoughts 8/11

1. I had an awesome confessions post for yesterday but then I couldn't find the picture I needed and thus never got it finished and in a fit of childish tantrum just decided to wait until next week since the post wasn't "perfect". Sometimes I am a brat. 2. I have been behind on emails and blogs all week and am spending the morning trying to get caught up on all of them. There were 50 linkups...
