Starting the New Year with some of My Favs....


So being a New Year 2015, many have resolutions. Mine are just to make the best of the year and share it with all Im thankful for. But being a female, I do have a few things that I personally do to improve myself and treat myself. Ive found a few things that are my must for the year, even down to  comfy cloths... Skin care to help my growing old age of 36 coming up, foods to comfort me and just my over all well-being. These are just a few of my MUST HAVES. Every woman has them. There are things I cant live without and new things I want to try.
Hollister being my fav store besides Anthropologies- this warm thing was worth every penny then some and its a sweatshirt with fur.... Who would have guessed with such a cute added fur trim.

Been using this for years and by far my favorite soap and is organic- PLUS


#1 Dermabrasion in my book


Love these and ofcourse Kinsley got them from Santa this year.. wonder if she will notice them missing. How cute with a blondie to rock them..

Love any Burts Bees product especially for Madalyns sensitive skin

If you have gone a summer with out this you have done your skin an injustice

This is a NEED!!!

Seasonal baby colds and this has been a lifesaver but hard to find

This is a new one for me but I definitely want to try this. Heard so many good things and every one needs to cleanse your body from all the harsh every day toxins

Years of this and nothing can touch it

Don't like cakey foundation but this does the trick on any blemish or under eye circles from lack there of sleep

All natural way to make your house smell yummy!!!

Mine just died after 6 great years of daily use and I will be purchasing another one. Worth every penny

Hydrate your skin because its not getting any younger and Origins is great for this

Miel Glace from lancome is my favorite way to glow with out tanning my skin but still looking colorful

Little bodies and short people can enjoy these Hollister dream jeans... Fit like a glove

My inspire to cut off all my 2 years of growing hair and go back blonde. New me for the New Year


No more eating fast food bc Im rushed- these taste like Carrabas and good for you...

New found clothing line for my hubby!!!!

Soups and salads are my favorite and this is one we have made all winter- super healthy and no matter what people say, Pinterest has great soup recipes...

Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday 2014

Well holidays have come and gone, and my blogging time was interrupted by a computer down. Nothing worse than having a computer not working and being torn between an ipad or cell phone for internet usage. But momentarily we are up and running. Thanksgiving was nice this year. We try to do a little something different. Wake up, dress somewhat nice for the occasion and cheers with Mimosas. We enjoyed the good eats; crab legs, filet mignon, twice baked potatoes, sweet potato soufflĂ©, green bean casserole and kinsleys favorite: canned cranberries. I attempted a pumpkin cheesecake but it was not my best to be honest. Most went in the trash. But I will find a better recipe for next year!!! Enjoyed the company of my 3 favorite midgets and hubby. Gotta love a good day of eats.





 
 
 
 
And then theres a little birthday celebration in between these holidays. Kinsleys birthday is one that's waited for all year. She decided to do a movie birthday with a few of her besties. Turned out to be a lot of fun. We did marble slab instead of a birthday cake and then enjoyed the Penguins of Madagascar movie. She had no clue, but Adam and I got her a new Iphone 5 and I think that's about all she really wanted. Happy number 11 to my sweet girl.
 





 
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd Adam and I decided this was a good year to start a Holiday celebration. To get our friends and family together. So an Ugly Sweater Christmas Party it was. So many cute sweaters made, bought etc. Cant believe how cute it all turned out and to my surprise, my dad, brother and sister in law decided to make a trip from Fayetteville and surprise me. IT WAS A SUPRISE!!! Lots of good eats contributed by all and ofcourse Josh & Heather won the champagne prize for the best sweaters. Probably had something to do with Heathers massive silver bow and rocking Christmas boots.
 

















 
Merry Christmas 2014
Very thankful for this year and all the people we have to share it with. Blessed with great friends and family. Welcoming in 2015 with lots to look forward to...
