Yes! :) I'm actually back!

Wahoo! So I know no one reads this,
But if you happen to be stopping by, hello :) & thank you!

Alright, so it's Monday & that means I did a project this weekend!
It's not too exciting but I figured I would share it with you anyway just to get the ball rolling
:)

I made 2 budget* binders,
One for myself
& one is going to be part of my little cousins wedding present!

 Apparently I need to download an app in order to get pictures off my phone, so I will have to do that later!
Anyway, thanks for stopping by, & I will see you next monday if not sooner =)
Have a great week!

Well hello again,

I know I keep saying I'm going to get better at this,
& I'm not going to say it again...
But I have made a plan for myself & I'm pretty sure it will be easy for me to stick to,
So for now, I will be posting on mondays =),
I will be trying my hand at projects I have found on Pinterest.
I will be taking pictures along the way and show you the end result.

I am pretty excited about this actually, I've always loved arts and crafts and this will help me get the things I want to accomplish done (they're mostly home improvement type projects)

So if you're interested in this type of thing, stay tuned,

Also I will be posting other things as well :)

--Thanks for stopping by.

oxo.

Get to know me;

:)
Well Hello there! :)
Nice to see you here!

I figured today would be a good day to tell you all a little but more about myself,
Where to start;
I am 21 years old.
Married.
Have 2 cats! :)
I'm fairly new to blogging, But I enjoy rambling (as you can probably tell..)
I am planning on starting a little shop on Etsy.com, hopefully soon! (Or maybe somewhere else?)
--Any suggestions? ..should I just start my own website? I don't know where to start..
I have a second blog page that I haven't yet started on; but I will get to it when the time is right
:) I am very excited about it actually.

That's all that I can think of for now off the top of my head,
if there is anything you would like to know,
Leave a comment! :) :)
Or tell me a little bit about yourself!

Have a wonderful day!

xoxo

Giveaway;

*Announcement, Announcement, Announcement!*

:)

As you can probably tell by the title; 

I'm going to do a giveaway!

Well, maybe...

If I can get 25 subscribers by;
November 1st 2012. 

I will post the official rules and things on November 5th..
(Which will be the official start date)

Anyway,
Just wanted to give you a heads up!

Have a wonderful day!

oxo
& just as a disclaimer;
I will be purchasing the item(s?) with my own money
& not only am I doing the giveaway for you folks out there,
I'm doing it for myself; as an incentive to please you, you could say.

I want you to know that I will be blogging more!
 & I really would like your input on what you would like to see more of,
otherwise it will probably just me babbling,
random tags,
Pictures from my day to day life,
reviews on products I enjoy (or don't)
& yea.
Leave me a comment on what you would like to see.

So today,

Today is just going to be a quick update; sorry.
My husband had to work a full day, wasn't expected.
So I have been doing last minute packing and cleaning.
..And eating the food that will be left in the house when we leave that would spoil...
It's mostly juice.
Anyway,
I figured I would write a little something while I was sitting in front of my computer,
with one happy cat on my lap!
I hate to disturb them when they're doing something cute.

But yea,
we are leaving either tonight; after dinner & baked apples.
(which I am super excited to make for the first time, I'll let you know how they turn out (=  )
Or very, very, very, early in the morning tomorrow.
So yea. :)
I'm getting very anxious!!!!

.. I guess that is all I wanted to say today.

I still need ideas for the giveaway.
I will make a new poll at the bottom of the page that will help me as well!
So check that out!! :) :)

Anyway,
Have a wonderful day & I will blog at you tomorrow.
XOX

..Shamelessly promoting myself...

Yea so,
I figured I would see what it would take to get subscribers..
& as a little incentive I thought;
Giveaway!
:)
I love entering and trying my luck!
So I figured I could give someone else a chance as well!

Any suggestions on what you would want to see as a prize,
For either this giveaway or one in the future are more than welcome!
& much appreciated.
I will be going on a cruise soon;
so maybe I could pick something up then..?
I'm not sure..
But it's for you guys out there,
so it would be best if you told me what you would like to receive!
More details will follow;
I think I'll do an actual post on it in early November!
So keep an eye out!
& maybe you'll have an extra little Christmas* present this year!
=)

OXO!
Have a wonderful day!

& thank you in advance for your suggestions and subscriptions!
You're awesome!

2 posts, one after the other, What?!!

Haha,

Yea, I'm just as surprised as you are ;P

Anyway, todays post isn't going to be that exciting...

Just figured I would get on, say hi, "Hi"

....

Today my day will consist of,

Cleaning, last minute packing stuff (& making sure we have everything)

It's a yucky day out & I am not a fan of the cold weather..

I broke out my winter coat yesterday :( Not a happy camper.

But soon we will be in the caribbean & life will be swell!

Unless it's going to be raining like my weather app is telling me....

Fingers crossed!

Anyway, that's enough rambling for now.

Maybe I will get on again later & babble awhile longer?

We'll see.

oxo.

P.S. I added some new things at the bottom of my page :)
if you want to check it out and let me know what you think that would be wonderful!
=)

Have a fantastic day!

October came too soon!

Wow, I didn't do any posts I wanted to do last month,
:(
--My excuses;
Husband came home <3 (Which the whole getting ready thing was a huge distraction)
My computers battery was completely dead, & my cats broke my cable to charge it (& I know I could have used my phone, but I was too lazy *Sigh*)
& well now, I know it's October now but we (My husband & I) have been super busy, running around getting stuff done for our Cruise! <3 That is coming up so fast it's almost unbelievable! *So excited*

But now,
No excuses, (Until I'm actually unable to post anything, which will be in 5 days, & even then there might be a short little something)
--Hubs bought me both a new battery & cable!!!!! So sweet! :)

Today has been a lazy day, we did so much the last few days, so this is nice!

-I'm not sure what else to write today besides that I do have things planned to write about!!!!!
& I promise they will get written!
Yay portable computer!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful day everyone!
oxo! <3

1st blog of Sept! whoo!

Haha, ok so, I have been home since saturday!
It has taken me longer than I anticipated to get readjusted, and I'm still not 100% there, ugh.
Anyway,
I want to just say "Hi"
& say I will probably be making another blog here shortly,
I know you're probably thinking "She can't even keep up with this one!"
I am making it a goal for myself to get better at it! :)
--Don't really remember the purpose of signing on today, I think I just wanted to get myself into the habit, although I vaguely remember wanting to talk about something....
Well, until next time...
Have a wonderful day!
oxoxo!

So sorry!!!!

Hi everyone!
It has been a crazy 3 months for me!!
My husband got deployed so we haven't gone on our cruise yet,
That will be in October :) & I am so anxious!
I am still thinking of things to blog about & I will be more consistent,
Starting the beginning of september! No excuses! I am making a commitment!
--if you happen to stumble upon this & have some suggestions for things I should write about, please feel free to leave a comment.

Thank you so much in advance, and for your patience!
& talk to you in a few days :) :) :) :)

KLovely oxox

Still trying to get in the swing of things..

Alrighty then,

I know not many people, if any, read this..

But if you do happen to stumble upon this blog, Hello & welcome! =)

I am trying to be more regular with logging on & posting things..

I have a plan, like I mentioned in the post below, but it really isn't going in affect until August.. which is when life won't be so ... everywhere, I suppose.

My husband and I are going on our honeymoon, in July. It's like our honeymoon/ one year anniversary celebration!

Can you guess what we're doing?!

-A cruise!!! I love cruises. This will be my 4th I believe & the Hubby's first! So pretty exciting stuff..

I'm just rambling now..

& the house needs cleaning so until next time,

xoxo.

Oh hey Blog-world!

It has been awhile, a long while rather! 

I've been trying to avoid the internet and accomplish things in real life,

.. So far so good I guess, I did get my drivers license in March. HUGE accomplishment for me! I've been avoiding that at all costs for what, 6 years now? :/ But it is done and out of the way now! Whoo hoo!

I haven't been taking pictures of the monthly subscription boxes that I receive either. Shame on me! Gogogirlfriend is shut down, I'm ok with that, wasn't too pleased at the end there anyway. But I have added to my list, only two new ones they are --

 myglambag.com 

and 

beautybar.com

Myglam is awesome! name brand stuff and it's only $10 a month and you get a cute bag (different everytime (=   ) 

I just signed up for the beautybar this month so my next box won't be shipped until June 1st. so Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things before then, not that I was ever in the swing of things to begin with, but hey.

There is a lot of stuff I have planned out, pretty sure I've said that in another post, but this time, I am dedicated! & nothing, except getting a job, will get in the way! =) --But I do need one of those & desperately want one!!!!!

Not that very many people, if any, read this but more things to come!

Thank you for reading, Have a wonderful day!

Hopefully these little posts will improve in the time to come.

xoxo.

Beauty Army

So, I signed up for this new beauty subscription box on the 1st of January, called Beauty Army. I received my box today! (the day after my birthday of course, because yesterday was MLK day!) =) But it is only $12 a month and you get to choose your samples, so there isn't any disappointment or any products going unused. This is what my "Kit" looks like :

The Blingtones eyeshadow was broken, but it's still useable! =) and I am pleased with the color (Morocco).
I haven't used anything yet, well... I did try the "Boo boo cover up" .. There wasn't much product and I tried it as a concealer... not too thrilled with it, but we'll give it a shot on a real owie and see what happens.

-But for now that is all...
I will try to update my thoughts on everything asap.
(I know I have a lot to upload still =/... )

--Oh & tonight starts Aaron & I's 2 day apple diet. ,We'll see what happens with that. Kinda nervous..


Xoxo.

Montagne Jeunesse

I have been trying a bunch of new face masks lately, and I seem to love them all..
While mud masks may be my new favorite (I only recently tried my first)
I have always liked Montagne Jeunesse, I had just picked up a few at walmart while my sister-in-law was in town. :)
But, I received a sample of the strawberry souffle in my Holiday Influenster VoxBox. =)
This mask smells sooo yummy!! The texture is creamy <3 and it left my skin feeling silky smooth! 5 stars! =)
I am so happy I was able to step outside of my little box once again, Thank you Influenster!!!! :)

& I'm pretty sure my next purchase is going to be the  Fudge Sauna Self Heating Face Masque, sounds so interesting & I have never used a "self heating mask" (I am so curious!!!!)

I have been searching for a new face wash that works, and I may have found a winner & I am so excited!

NYC New York Color

I received a full size (I think, it's at least a deluxe size) Liquid lipshine from NYC in the shade Nude York City (582) in my Holiday VoxBox  through Influenster. <3
& all I can say is, it's simply wonderful! =) I've been wanting to get a nude lip gloss, but I seem to gravitate towards the pinks =/... But I am so thrilled to now have this in my collection. It has let me come out of my box a little & I'm loving it!! =)


This next little blurb is going to be straight from the link on the influenster site.
"Straight from the city that never sleeps, NYC New York Color offers products with uptown style at down-to-earth prices, from $.99 - $4.99.

--Quick swatch.

imPRESS Press-on Manicure

I received a box of imPress manicure nails in my Influenster Voxbox & I am so excited to try them out.
Granted I'm waiting until after the 15th of this month because they won't match my dress for the ball, but still.
They have so many cool designs to choose from, 36 to be exact.
You can check them out at a number of stores like Walmart, RiteAid, Walgreens & Kmart (& a few other places you can get the rest of the list on their website www.impressmanicure.com ) as well as a $1 off coupon!  =)
www.impressmanicure.com


I will post a picture once I have them on my fingers! Possibly the 16th! =)
So excited.


XOXO.

Influenster VoxBox

So, I received my first voxbox today! I am so excited!!!!! =)

I am so so so so happy with the products!

I have been debating buying a nude lipgloss...

& Nude York City (582) by NYC is Perfect!!

-I'm not really a fan of coconut, or bar soaps... But this smells delicious & I am anxious to try it!

I am also excited about the Strawberry Souffle mask by Montagne Jennesse, I've been trying all kinds lately. =) So I'm excited to try this one.

Mentos gum is a little average, but what can you say to free gum <3.

There were also some ImPress nails, I'm anxious to see how these hold up. -I was hoping to get a red color, or one of the "funkier" sets, but the one I received is pretty. (D060 Over the Moon)

They say they're supposed to last up to a week, so we'll see... (I work in stocking, so I bang up my nails quite a bit), I'll probably wait till vacation to try them though.

& last but certainly not least, the product that made this box for me....

X Out by proactive!

SO HAPPY!!!!

I have been looking for the perfect face wash & fingers crossed that this is it..

I used it as soon as I opened the box basically,

-It smells so good.

-It left my face feeling silky smooth.

-It really did feel like an "Icy slap" like they say, & yet it was refreshing! =)

I will keep updating how these products work for me!

Such a happy camper!

Thank you so much Influenster.com

xoxo

These are going to be out of order

Sorry, But I have this picture of my first GoGo Girlfriend box on my computer...
-I received my first Birchbox & New Beauty Test Tube on the same day back in September I believe... but this picture is convenient so I figured I'd put it up =)

& Pig is checking out my stuff too..

(My cat Stewie)

So my favorite things in this GoGo Girlfriend box were: (in no particular order)

1. Nature's Gate Pomegranate Sunflower Hair Defense Conditioner

I absolutely loved this! I will be buying the full size! =) It made my hair really soft!

2. Comodynes Easy Peeling New Face Effect Exfoliating Towelette

These were a little rough, but they worked nicely. -I cut mine into four pieces, so I got more use out of my sample! =)

3. Oluv Body All Natural Moisturizer

This was a bit runny.. but it works so well! -My husband compliments me on how soft I am when I use it

4.Modella Bangkok Cosmetic Bag

I use this for my nail polishes now, I don't have much... but it's super cute! (& my favorite color is pink)

5. Camille Beckman Glycerin Hand Therapy

In Mango Beach. -I didn't think I would like it that much, I'm not a big mango fan..

But this stuff is so soft, the smell is so yummy & it works wonders! =)

The other things, I haven't tried the tea or the blush brush yet.

The perfume was ok,

& the Urban Decay eye shadow was a little dark for my taste.

But other than that....

I loved my first GoGoGirlfriend experience!
