Goofy Faces

My weekend was filled with work and catching up on errands.  2 more weeks of school and this will be over.

Life Update

You don't realize how often you use your Shift key until it starts sticking.  Jeez.  Instead of doing homework on Tuesday I took Ethan out to enjoy the weather.  Here is what we did:





I love hanging out with him; he's so cute. 

I realized today I have about 2.5-3 years left of school and then I will be done!  I can't believe I will finally have a bachelor's degree.  Once Ethan starts 1st grade it will be a little easier to take classes since we can be in school the same hours.  My advice: do not stop going to school.  I took almost a 5 year break in between the first and second time I went to college and that is my biggest regret.  At least I will graduate before I am 30, I hope!  This semester will be over in 3 weeks and I will have a summer break, thank God.

I am planning Ethan's 5th birthday party.  I can't believe he will be 5!  He wants a Mario and Angry Birds birthday party.  We compromised and selected Mario.  Let the planning begin!

Etsy Showcase: Elle Moss

I love when I find beautiful photography.  I love all the prints by ellemoss, but I love this pastel the best.  I have quite an obessession for pastels lately.  I blame Louis V's spring/summer ads!

My Target Addiction

I have a serious addiction to Target.  I mean it's bad, Red Card obsessed bad.  I love this two-piece swim suit from Target.  At only $14.99 how can you pass it up?  Too bad it's sold out.  I can only hope it comes back in stock ASAP.

Friday!

I am so sick of this dreary weather that has plagued us all week.  It's also my one day off and it's so cold and yucky. 

I am in love with the Ciate Caviar Manicure so I will be purchasing another soon!

I did do a maternity shoot this afternoon.

Faces de Couleur

I have some amazing make-up artist friends.  They have recently joined forces and have started a business, Faces de Couleur.  Please check them out.  I have had the privilege of working with them, so I know first hand they have amazing skills.  You can contact them for bridal make-up, photoshoots, etc.

Love them? Wanna hire them?

Wedding Weekend

This weekend I photographed a wedding.  Here are some of the images.  I got to use the new Nikkor 85mm f1.4 G lens and I love it!



And just for fun....

Ciate! Ciate! Ciate!

Today is the day!  Sephora.com gets Ciate polishes.  Hurry up and post them in stock because I need it.  I love the caviar manicure.  Downside, only lasts 48 hours. Boo!

To Buy or Not To Buy

I need a yellow cardigan and I think I have settled for this one.  To buy or not to buy?
I have become obsessed with mustard yellow and I have the perfect navy blue dress to wear with it.  At $34.99 you would think I would snap it up.  I'm a if-you-can't-buy-it-at-Target-don't-get-it type of person.

Want Me? Buy Me?

Monday Musings

Ethan had a great Easter, 3 baskets and an egg hunt.  Can you say spoiled?!





Things I can't wait for this week: Ciate nailpolish to be at Sephora, photographing a wedding in the Dells, a day off on Thursday

Things I could do without: school and exams, paying my car loan

Awaiting the Coveted Birchbox

I feel like I have been awaiting the coveted Birchbox for an eternity.  I signed up to join a few months ago and have been daydreaming of what would come my way.  Since I work in the "beauty business" I feel like this is a neccessity.  If you don't know what Birchbox is prepare to be amazed.  Birchbox sends out a handful of deluxe beauty samples once a month to it's members for $10.  It is usually the latest and greatest.  If you decide you love the sample and have to buy the full product you can do that through Birchbox as well. It's a great way to test what's out there without making a full commitment.  This is totally me.  I hate making a commitment.  I don't think I've used a full tube of lipstick or a full bottle of hair product ever.  Hopefully soon I will get to experience Birchbox.  Cross your fingers.
