Break Style...

Today I am sporting some of my festive new eye shadow! I think I finally found the perfect shade of brown that can be dressed up or fairly natural!

And wow do I have a Jay Leno chin in that picture!!

And I finally got some decent hair product that is actually working with the frizz!! I realized this morning that if I didn't have to do my hair I would save so much time in the morning! And I don't even spend that much time on it compared to other girls.
But when you add in having to put leave in conditioner on it before you comb so the tangles aren't as bad, combing through the mess, then putting curl mousse and gel cream on it. Not to mention blow drying it juuust right to where its still damp but not dripping and then straightening the bangs and shellacking the whole thing with hairspray.
Whew I'm tired just thinking about it! 4 total products used after the shower! Its no wonder i get super hot while I'm getting ready! I am proud to say though even with all that it only takes me 40 mins from getting out of bed to ready.

And finally my outfit today! Its the next to last day of break and while we're on break we get to do casual friday everyday! WHOO HOOOO!!!!! Its nice because its SO HOT outside I think I would melt into a puddle of sweat if i had to wear dress pants. Next week is definately going to be skirts all week long!!

THanks!! I am slowly but surely growing it out!!

After I get out of the shower I spray it with INfusium 23 leave in conditioner before i comb it with a supe wide comb.

Then I put some frizz ease mousse ( take charge- curl boosting mousse) in it and scrunch that around.

After that I put right on top of it a new product my mom got me, ok so she got all of these on sale on walgreens but details :)

Aveeno Nourish and stile soft hold gel-creme.

Mousse alone doesn't hold the frizz back now that its longer and gel alone makes it kind of crunchy and for me not as curly. but this gel creme stuff or the garnier fructtisse stuff is really good.

then i blow dry it and scrunch it and straighten my bangs and shellack the whole thing with tressemme hair spray. aerosal and i do the fine mist, always sold hold!

what do you use?

and how do you get your hair dry in the morning? mine is always wet but if i dry it too much it gets gross and frizzes out and loses its curl. my hair needs a therapist!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

New Bedroom Decor!

 Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much!  So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!
