Love it....

I would like to introduce you to Clarsonic. The Clarsonic is a skin cleansing tool with a brush head that spins and sends out a sonic pulse to get deeper cleansing. Let me tell you I am a skeptic. I have tried just about everything out there and I love this. Its so easy to use. It washes your face for you. I have been using this for a couple of months and have seen a major improvement in my skin. I have also been using the M2 Skin Refinisher which I am also in love with. This is also a shout out to my Mom for making me try something new again.

First off...


So after I got my camera I just had to make a cute strap. In fact I couldn't rest or focus until I did. So here it is. I think I might make a couple more so I can switch them out whenever I get the urge. You know cause that's what girls do and variety is the spice of life. It was pretty simple and inexpensive as well. I found the instructions here. So I have been playing around and can't wait until I really get the hang of it all.

Presenting.....

Presenting (drum roll please)....Presley's Halloween costume. Which I made ( cough with minimal help from my Mom cough). I am loving the way it turned out. I have to admit that there were times I wanted to rip it to pieces but alas we both made it through. What is she one might ask? She is any freakn' princess she wants to be. All I know is that is done and fabulous.

I seriously loves this picture of her sweet little face.

Oh how she loves to pose. Don't ask me what she is doing. I am sure she thought it was a very artistic pose.

I had to work hard to get this smile. She prefers to model with a serious face.



I love her little feet. If you can't tell I love just about everything about her.




You might be wondering why she is wearing a white undershirt. The explanation is she is obsessed with them. She is always wearing either and tank top or an undershirt. The dress it a titch low so I decided I would comply with her audacious request.

As you can tell I am a very proud Momma and don't plan on changing. I can't wait until she gets back so I can squeeze her.

Love it?


Do I love sewing? I would have to say yes and no. I love the finished product and the sense of accomplishment. Let's face it I also like the bragging rights. Ok, I love the bragging rights. Just a week or so ago I finished Presley's costume. I got ambitious and went with a difficult pattern and I am quite happy with the out come. I have also started my costume. I am going to be Cleopatra and it looks like I have two parties to wear it to so far. Cheers to sewing and a double cheers for bragging rights!

Excitment!

I have an exciting announcement. After about a year I have finally made the plunge and ordered my camera. It's a Canon Rebel T1i! It has 15.1 mega pixels and full HD video. I am so excited. Hopefully it gets here by Wednesday. Until then I will be waiting on baited breath.

I'm sooooo.....


I'm so sad. I miss my girl. It's only been a week and I am dying. Only two more months to go. :( On a lighter note. I did get some film developed and found this pic. She insisted that I take it just like this. She thinks she is such a model. I took some Halloween pics before she left which I will post soon. Every time I see her like this it makes me laugh and I envision her Auntie Britt rolling her eyes and saying oh, goll.

Wake up Call...


While searching for my local spin class schedule I found this article. I am seriously rethinking the chili fries I splurged on. Yikes!
