Dun Dun Dun- WRINKLES!!

Reality check!!! I’m getting old! Provided I am only 24 but where are these wrinkles coming from? Point blank I need dun dun dun WRINKLE HELP!!!



Should I be getting wrinkles already? Seriously!
Super crows feet and baggy eyes!?!?!? WTH!

Here is a list of beauty products that I use on a daily basis.
1. BareMinerals Prime Time Brightener Foundation Primer
2. BareMinerals Advanced Protection SPF 20 Moisturizer
3. BareMinerals Original SPF Foundation
4. BareMinerals Bronzing Mineral Veil Broad Spectrum SPF 25
5. BareMinerals Firming Eye Treatment (stopped using it, I didn’t like it)
6. MAC eye makeup and mineralization blush

I’m not a tanning bed junky, I only go once in a blue moon to get some color back in my skin and I never use facial tanners!
I use sunscreen every time I am out in the sun for a long period of time!
I have very sensitive skin and can’t use soap on my face.
My mom has had a hard time with wrinkles for a long time but she loves her tanning bed too, so I like to think that I didn't inherit these bad boys.

What do you use to prevent or help with wrinkles?
Seriously, facelift at 30?
Any akin care advice ladies would be great!

Weekend Shenanigans Yall



... I had to work until a little after five on Friday evening but Hubster and I decided we wanted to go see a movie. Being the sweet little wifey that I am I let him choose, either the Wizard of Oz or Safe Haven.

... We devoured some Olive Garden

... He choose The Wizard of Oz in IMAX 3D the late movie

... It was really great! We kind of thought it would be more adult but really I think Madison would have enjoyed it as much as we did.

... Saturday was BEAUTIFUL weather, I took advantage of the weather and spent some time with my ponies.

... It felt great to be back in the saddle!

... After a morning of riding and grooming my ponies, Momma and I went SHOPPING :)

... I introduced her to my newest obsession- CHARMING CHARLIE!

... We put a slight dent in the store than evening :)

... Sunday we attended the late service at church and worship was just mind blowing.

... We skipped off to the mall where we had fun buying my dad some swimming trunks for his upcoming trip to Hawaii. Btw, he has had the same swimming trunks since before I was born and I am not exaggerating!

... And there is no way that I was letting him go to a tropical island in 25 year old swimming trunks.

... My husband browsed the baby section at Alumni Hall and bought some UK gear for our soon to be nephew. (He is getting excited although he is trying not to show it!)
... After church I spent a little while outside with the fur babies :)

... Sunday evening was a typical evening at my parentals where daddy bbq'd a Boston butt and modeled his new swim trunks ;)

... The night ended with Hubby and I cuddled up on couch watching the Bible.

Keep Calm and Grow a Mustache!

Hey Yall! Yesterday I had the honor of hosting my sister a baby shower for her soon to be little man- Rowdy :)

15 things to do before makin babies

I planned almost my entire wedding from theknot.com and now that I am married I have transitioned over to thenest.com for the newly starting out married couple. FYI- if your engaged and starting to plan I really recommend theknot.com!! :) If you know anything about me you know babies are on my brain! Friends and relatives are having babies, I'm currently planning a baby shower, I just got my first nursing job as a pediatric nurse, and as of yesterday I am officially the owner of my first mommy vehicle :) So with that said... I know you are wondering... Is she prego? Well no, but the plan is hopefully in two years we will be. I am a planner and I know people say that you are never prepared for babies no matter what BUT I hope to be as prepared as possible. Especially since the twins gene runs on BOTH sides of our families. While in the process of preparing there are something I want to experience kid free first!

So while browsing on thenest.com I found this list of 15 Things To Do Before Having Kids. On the list it features things like:
skydiving or bungee jumping,
being the last one to leave a party,
stay in bed ALL day with your spouse and watch movies,
fly first class... etc.

This is something I have thought about on many occasions because although I want to be a good mom, I also want to still be the adventurous me... So here are some things on my personal list of things to do before having kids:
Backpack through Europe
Go on a road trip
DEFINITELY fly first class!
Go to the Kentucky Derby
Learn to play the guitar or piano

So those are just a few of my priority to do's before having kids... What are some of yours or if you already have kids what are some of the things you wish you would have done before having kiddos?

I'm a nurse!

I totally forgot to post this weeks ago! Lol!

Its official- I'm a nurse!
I passed NCLEX and was issued my license! Whooop Whooop!
Btw- I was offered a job prior to graduation and now I am a pediatric nurse :)
Everything is falling into place!
