bloopers!!

Okay guys...here it is!

The best part of how awesome this challenge was is how awful some of the photos were...I feel like its only right to share with you...

*note: none of these pics are edited and are all completely awful. please enjoy!

I know you cant tell....but I'm quickly running from a bumble bee...you can tell that my right foot is heading straight for the door...

fixing my tank under my dress...

completely inappropriate

this one is hilarious to me because the book beside me says

'nasty girls'

even craigy gets an out take....

i laughed for about an hour about this picture. 

I hope you enjoyed all the horrible moments of the past 30 days...

This is Venti.

She's Kennedy's bestfriend. Except that one time that she tried to kill her. 

Other than that, they're total besties. 

Speaking of besties, we got to see ours this weekend!!

Craig and I went out of town earlier than expected this week which is why all of my posts were super late! Sorry about that, but if you keep scrolling down I uploaded all of the pics! I was still taking pictures though! 

PLUS I got a hair cut! How do you like it?? 

YOU GUYS! We did it! We finished our 30 for 30 challenge! It wasnt the easiest thing I've ever done, but it was soo much fun!

Here are a few things that I learned:

1 If you are a jeans and t-shirt girl, thats okay! just pick more than 1 pair of jeans!

2 If you're only going to pick one pair than make it either your favorite or your best quality pair. This is not what I did and I couldn't WAIT to put on my favorite pair Sunday afternoon!

3 Investing in a good camera apparently is a good idea. 

4 Don't wait to take pictures at night. They wont come out.

5 Consider the weather. If you're starting at the beginning of April just know that in Georgia summer starts April 10th, and you're long sleeve button ups and cardis aren't going to work anymore! Bad planning on my part!

6 Doing it with a friend is the best idea! Speaking of which, you MUST go check out Holly's final outfits!

7 You have a lot more outfits in your closet than you think!

That last one is soooo true! I probably have never wore 20 out of the 30 outfits that I made before this challenge. Especially my blue UO pencil skirt: yeah...I had never wore that before - ever! and now its my favorite thing in my closet! 

During this whole thing my sweet husband has been ahhhmaaazing! He basically went outside with me every day and took like a billion pictures until I found one that I liked. He's such a trooper and deserves a big gold star. 

BTW: I have a TON out ridiculous out takes that I cant wait to show you! I think I'll post those for you tomorrow. 

They're freaking hilarious. 

I'm already completely embarrassed to show you all. 

Also....Holly is in Cincinnati right now running a marathon. Isn't she such a rock star??!

Guys, this is reality. 

Sometimes on Saturdays, I don't want to wear a cute dress. Sometimes I just want to throw on a pair of jeans and take Kennedy-Buttons for a walk. 

Easy Peasy.

This is my father-in-laws brand new 1977 280Z. 

I guess that doesn't make since...brand new and its a 1977.

What I mean is that he just got it. 

So its new to him. 

But its kinda old. 

I mean, its pretty sweet.

I think you got it. 

I told him that if he ever wanted to sell it that I would let him use my sexy-car-show-girl picture to help spark some interest. 

Craig says that's not necessary.

am I really not wearing any jewelry?? ....guess not.

As you can see here, I am totally out of poses. I'm running out of clothes and ways to show them, haha!

my nose is sooo stuffy, and its driving me crazy!! I never have allergies, but I can totally sympathize with you all now. 

Kennedy got into the trash can in the office and now I have to pick up all the trash because somebody left the lid off of it. Yeah, Craig....I'm talkin bout you.

I have to ship a candle to Indonesia tomorrow. 

We're leaving for NC soon, so I need to pack. aaaaand yes, friends, I will be getting my hair done as soon as we arrive! Because no, I was not trying to have the whole 'ombre' hair color thing going on...it just happened that way. 

...but maybe I should start telling people that I did mean to have this cool new hair trend that all the celebrities are doing. Then I would be cool. 

I think thats all that I have for tonight! I hope you all sleep well!

Check out Holly's blog to see what she wore today!

Only 4 days left! xox

Happy Monday!!

Today definitely felt like a Monday at work....

I really dislike Mondays. 

Sorry Monday...but Thursdays are better.

As much as I dont like Mondays...something amazing happened today!

A little fairy, we'll call her mommy, came into my house while we were working and did a few mountains of laundry, vacuumed, dusted and even changed out my fragrance diffuser. 

Aren't mommies the best?!! 

I can't even describe the amount of stress that was relieved, lol.

We get so busy sometimes and we forget the basics. Like grocery shopping too (which we did tonight...yess!!)

Life is good. 

I get to see 2 of my besties this weekend! I'm soo excited!

Also, I'll be getting a MUCH MUCH MUCH needed hair cut and color!! I cant believe I've taken 25 pictures to show you and I havent even done my hair! 

::embarrassed:: 

Head on over to Holly's blog to see what she wore today!!

Happy Easter!!

As you can see I had the privilege of visiting with the Easter Bunny today...As it turns out, you are not allow to stand while holding the Easter Bunny. You must sit. Otherwise people will yell at you, in front of lots of children....and you will be sad. 

But isnt he adddooorrrable?!!

We had a great day! Lots of friends over for a cook out after a fantastic service at church. aaaaand then mom and dad came over for pizza tonight. It didnt really feel like Easter, but it did feel like a really awesome day. 

Yesterday on our bookstore-date I bought Water for Elephants and I cant wait to start it!! The movie look amazing! So with that I'm planning on retiring for the evening...why dont you check out Holly's outfit. She was pretty adorable today, as always!

Happy Saturday!!

This has been one of most chill weekends I've had in a looong time! I mean, I was still pretty busy, but at least I was busy at home. Until we went out to eat and spent some time at the book store. Thats all great though, I'll take a bookstore date anyday!! 

I got a lot done today for the ICE show! Working on some new product, which I would love to give you a little sneak peek of....

....introducing my new mineral makeup!

These are just a few preliminary colors that I came up with today...I'm still working on names. Do you have any suggestions?? 

Looking forward to having an exciting Easter tomorrow! I was a little disappointed that I couldn't buy a new Easter dress, but thats okay! I'm enjoying my 30 for 30 challenge!

Check out what Holly wore today...

 Happy Earth Day/Good Friday!!!

It started to rain juuuusssttt as Craig and I went outside for our pictures, so I decided to run back in and grab my booties and umbrella. Actually I'm probably going to wear my boots from Target with this to service tonight (just so you know!)

I got my washi tape in the mail today...remember I was telling you about it?? OH MAN! they are sooo cute! I can not wait to use them!

Craigy and I are baking brownies and apple coffee cake for the cafe tonight...both of which I can not have. Thats okay, I'm having cheesecake when we get home!

Sorry this pic is a little blurry, I just wanted you to see how adorable my wellies are...and I was not going to ask Craig to go back outside again...!

Cant wait to see what cute little outfit Holly put together tonight @ church!!! You can check it out too, here!

tights: Target

shoes: Target

belt: H&M

I'm feeling rather pensive today...

okay not really..but I thought the outfit deserved to look smart. 

Tonight Craig and I are BOTH going to be at the house AT THE SAME TIME! what?!!! I know! I'm going to try to take advantage of it by doing some cleaning, laundry, and I would really love to get some small grocery shopping done. But we're both so exhausted that we'll probably just veg out on the sofa. Very rarely do we get to do that anymore and we like to take advantage of it when we can....although if I dont do laundry soon Craigs going to be out of undies. 

hmm....decisions, decisions. 

I think maybe thats what I'm thinking about in my picture. 

Anyways, check out what my lovely friend, Holly, is wearing today...and if you're feeling rather generous *cough mom cough* come on over and help yourself to some dirty laundry. I'll feed you! Pinky promise.
