Messy Side Bun

I tried my hand at a messy side bun this past weekend.  It turned out “okay”.
I just looped it around a pony tail holder and then used two bobby pins to secure it.

What do you think?

 I was inspired by these looks :
Have ya’ll tried this look before and how did it turn out?

Lazy Weekend & Giveaway!

Our weekend was pretty lazy….as aforementioned in the title of this post!
Friday I went to a bachelorette dinner at Joe T’s for Terence’s cousin Katy
(I should have brought my camera = fail)
Saturday we just laid around the house all day.  I caught up on some recorded TV shows.  My DVR was starting to implode.  Me and my buddy just hung out at the hizzy 🙂

 He loves drinking out of my Starbucks cup more than his own sippy….silly boy!

My Favorite Sandwich

The following is how to make my favorite sandwich :
(I cannot take credit for this…because my husband is the first one to make it!)
  •  Kraft Chipotle Mayo
  • Bread
  • Cheese – I prefer provolone or swiss
  • Mesquite turkey 
 Put it all together
Most of our small appliances are the Kitchenaid Pro Line
I love these toaster sandwich racks! 
You can find them HERE
 Squeeze it in….
 Drop
Toast….
And don’t forget to butter your bread a bit so it won’t turn out as “toasty”
It was still delicious though 😉
AND ENJOY!!!!
Easy huh?

Friday Randoms

I am going to spank my twinkie!!!! She introduced me to a new drink at Starbucks that does NOT contain coffee???  I know you are in utter shock right now!  It’s a double chocolate chip frappuccino and it tastes like a Frozzzzen hot chocolate 🙂  It is SO good!

The other day I used my Ginalli
Have I mentioned how much I love this curling iron?

You can find it for waaaaay cheaper on EBay.  I’ve had it for about 4 years now and it’s the best curling iron I’ve ever owned.  It gets super hot like a Chi and makes perfect waves.

More pics of da boo boo!!!
I can’t wait to see you in a couple weeks Nana & Poppy!

I’m loving Pinterest.  I’ve been finding lots of inspirational pics for Connor’s “big boy” room!  I am thinking rocket ships.  Connor loves Little Einsteins and they have a rocket ship in the cartoon.  And I think a space theme would be pretty cool 😉

BOOK SHELF:

 COOL MOBILE
 LOVE THIS ALPHABET
(I told Terence I am sending him to a woodworking class)
 Also LOVE this idea to store ribbon on a tiered hanger
See how beautiful Bon’s hair looks….she used the Ginalli!
Bonnie also WON the Ulubulu giveaway!!!!
I guess I can’t NOT include her…geeze….she did win…..
(Don’t bother sending your address…I know it)

First Nosebleed

We were all playing outside tonight and Connor hit the pavement pretty hard.  He busted his nose….I think it hurt me more than him!  He cried for a couple minutes and just got right back up and started running again!  I am sure this won’t be the first time. 

Boy, it sure is hard to watch your baby get hurt 🙁
