Celtic Women Giveaway!

You may remember awhile back I was joking about my husband and his love for the Celtic Women.  He even had me go look up concert dates online.  We were watching them one evening and it has to be one of the most beautiful ensembles I’ve ever heard.  These women have such wonderful harmony together.  I can hardly watch them without wanting to get up in the living room and dance around! ha ha!  Seriously I love it!

Celtic Woman just released their new project, Believe, an enchanting studio album and companion live concert DVD!

If you’re not familiar with them, Celtic Woman is an all-female singing group featuring vocalists Chloë Agnew, Lisa Kelly, Lisa Lambe and Celtic violinist Máiréad Nesbitt. They perform classic Irish songs (“Green Grow the Rushes”), timeless pop anthems (“Bridge Over Troubled Water”), and inspirational songs (“Ave Maria”) with their signature Celtic Woman twist. The live concert DVD was filmed for the first time in America in front of some of their most loyal fans during two sold-out nights at The Fox Theatre in Atlanta, GA this past September.


Below is a streaming song from the CD, as well as a trailer for the DVD

Tonight I’m giving away one signed copy of the CD and one signed copy of the DVD.

Pre-Valentine Weekend


Well, either Terence reads my blog or he knew exactly what I wanted…..

 

I got my Godiva EXTRA dark truffles (they may be gone now…whoops!)

&

A copy of Breaking Dawn on Blue Ray 🙂

 

Thank you baby I love you!!!

These are Connor’s 2012 Valentines Day cards…I’m hopefully going to get them in the mail today.  FAIL.
I’m so behind these days…..They are from Tiny Prints & they always do a great job!

We met up with my good friend Karen and her two kiddos at the mall on Saturday.  It was so good to see her because we don’t get together often enough.  With all our kiddos now it’s hard to wrangle everyone!  But she understands my crazy self and I love her 🙂

We’ll have to get together again before the kids hit highschool Karen <3 (I should have got a pic of you for my Starbucks wall…she had a Starbucks in hand when she got to the mall! ha ha!)

 I found these cute little Valentine’s day items:

  • This doggy for Connor from JellyCat.  It’s SOOOOOO soft!
  • Kinder chocolate=Heaven
  • I love these napkins with the banners on them.  I will probably use them for Connor’s party

Hope ya’ll had a great weekend too!!!

 

It’s pretty cold here today so we are all bundled up and I wish I was in bed under the covers…..

 

 

Alas I am not and I’m sitting here at work sipping my coffee!

 

Another day of life….enjoy it and make the most of it 🙂

Favorite Products of the Week


 

 Go link up HERE with your favorite products of the week!
One of my favorite things this week is this fun table runner I got from Zulily.  I’m addicted to Zulily like crack.  They have some great sales on there and their prices are amazing!  I actually got this to use for Connor’s 2nd birthday party, but it looks so bright and springy I went ahead and put it out.  I think it’s from Mud Pie.

 I was in a baking mood last night and wanted to use the new mini heart sprinkles I bought.

You can buy them at Bake it Pretty.
It’s one of my favorite sites for baking supplies.

 And lastly a picture of the munchkin….with his “What did I do?” face…..

The kid kills me.  He’s such a goof!

And he doesn’t want to wear shirts right now for some reason???

 

What are you loving this week?

 

Hair Tutorials?

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

Do you have a favorite blogger or YouTube channel for hair tutorials?

Right now I really like The Small Things Blog for hair tutorials. She has great hairstyles and tips.  Now if only she would come style my hair every day???

I also like Lauren Conrad’s site The Beauty Dept.  She has awesome tutorials as well!

Right now because it’s cold outside I’m liking hats as well.  I usually find them at end of season sales.  AND- they are great when you are having a bad hair day!

What is your hat style?  How do you wear your hair in winter weather?

Funny Story…

Last night Connor boy and I were on our own. 
 
Terence had a work meeting about an hour away and didn’t get in until late. 
 
So I made Connor a grilled cheese and gave him a bath. 
 
My sister called while I was giving him a bath….meanwhile I handed Connor a purple fizzy tablet to turn his bath water purple.  Fun right? 
 
Wrong.  He stuck it in his mouth!  
 
Here I was just chatting it up and then turned around and he was spewing purple everywhere!  Of course I freaked and then dropped my BRAND.NEW.PHONE. in the bathtub. Waaaaaaah!!! 
 
I started drenching Connor in water and pouring it down his throat to try to get the bath tablet out.  I patted him on the back several times and he finally got it out and threw up a few times.  I think he’s fine now but it sure did scare me!
 
My phone sat in a bowl of rice last night and seems to be working fine today, but dang it can I not handle one night alone????
 
We had a good night after all that drama.
 
I threw the rest of these bad boys away.  I don’t blame him.  They look like candy don’t they?
 Terence brought me home a Godiva cheesecake and that made me feel better!
Guess what I had for breakfast???
 And this of course…..

 We were at Buy Buy Baby the other night and Connor just went bonkers over this truck….

Birthday present perhaps???

Super Bowl 2012

Last night my friend Kindra and her fiance Clint came over to watch the Super Bowl.  Kindra and I are always trying to get our guys to do stuff 😛  We also work together, but don’t get much time to have fun and chit chat at work so it’s nice to get together on the weekends and hang out 🙂
So here is our Super Bowl re-cap:

We decided to make dips for our little get together.  Kindra made dill dip.  I made some cheese/bean dip and a red velvet cheese ball.  OMG the red velvet cheese ball was so good and SO easy to make! 

Recipe is HERE

I thought there were a few good commercials.  I liked the car commercial with the hot woman in it and the nerdy guy. It was some foreign car commercial???  I also thought Madonna did pretty good.  I mean she’s in her 50’s people….I can’t even move like that!  I don’t really care for her, but whatever.

We also played around with my wide angle lens yesterday….it makes you look silly!!! LOL!

I love this kid with all my heart.  I can’t believe in less than a month he’ll be two!  Wahhhhhh!!!!

It’s back to work today and my eyeballs are about to fall out from staring at the computer….I’m going to have to start wearing my glasses more.
