My life update

Weekend Fun!

This weekend will be full of fun!

Tonight my sweetheart and I are going to see Addams Family the Musical at the San Diego Civic Theater

I am really excited to see this one! We have season tickets ahem... nose bleed seats, but hey we get to see all of the shows! 

Tomorrow we are going to one of my best friends daughters birthday party!

It will be a fun puppy themed event. I wish I could give her a puppy but for fear of losing my friend after that surprise I will have to keep the present more, well normal.

Sunday we are having our monthly family meal, in the past we have always had a family dinner, this month we are having a family Breakfast! I have the main dish so I am going to be making Chilaquiles a mexican dish, that is kind of like lasanga except instead of noodles you use tortillas and instead of marinara sauce you use enchildada sauce. I keep looking at more and more recipes, cross your fingers for me!

After family breakfast my cutie and I are heading to a Padres Game vs The Diamondbacks!

I am so excited! Go Padres!

I hope you all have an amazing weekend!

Mani Monday!

I love http://www.justlove.ly/ for this reason...

Mani Mondays!

If you know me at all you know that I own an insane amount of beauty products. I own a little bit of everything but my kryptonite is Nail Polish. I have a little downstairs, a large amount in my bedroom, a little more in the bathroom, in my car, in my purse, a little in the guest room, a little in the downstairs bathroom and a few being fostered at my sisters homes. Well I keep buying more, here is why. I don't own every single color yet and I love to play with color! (I also love seeing my boyfriend cringe at another bottle, then tell me that he likes the color!)
So on my recent trip to Burlington Coat Factory I spotted four little bottles, they were so bright that I couldn't miss them and for $3.99 how could I leave these little lovelies sitting on the couch for someone else to take? No no, they came home with me. I have already used three of the colors and they are perfection.

A perfect lime green color, bright orange, insanely neon purple, and bright pink!

 Here is the bright pink color on my fingers.

The nail polish are the perfect creamy consistency that give off perfect color pay off, they don't get sticky when drying, and they are the perfect addition to a spring outfit. I love them! Way to go Color Club!

*I purchased these with my own money and my opinions are all mine*

My fantastic week!

WOW

This week was amazing. Here is why.

1. One of the grant funded programs I work for was refunded for another 5 years. It is an amazing feeling. To be able work for these amazing students and help them achieve their dreams is quite an honor. I am beyond thrilled.

2. I found a new love that this precious little thing is called: New Girl. 

Sure her voice is a little unusual but now I am addicted to her, her hair, her glasses and the voice. Check it out! 

3. Etching Glasses.

 I will post a tutorial on this soon but I will tell you that I made 8 glasses in one night and they are perfect!! 

4. This new bag:

By: Segolene Paris. I adore this color and the gold hardware on it. It is so cute and springy!

5. Ikea Bags:

I am in love these because it makes cleaning my car really easy! I commute to work everyday, it is about 45 minutes away so I typically store 4-5 pairs of heels, 3 blazers and a jacket or two. Which makes for a cluttered car.. I finally cleaned it out and packed then unpacked the entire bag full of heels, wedges and flats.

My April 2012 Birchbox

Every time I received my birchbox I get an e-mail 3 days before telling me what is inside of it, and I always have to remember to delete the e-mail before I get nosy and ruin my surprise.

The unwrapping is always so exciting!

Oh hello there, what wonderful gifts will you give me today!?

I will be honest, I usually toss this aside, but today I decided to read it

My samples:

dropps Laundry Detergent

amika Nourishing Hair Mask

Zoya Nail Polish in Lotus
Juice Beauty Oil-Free Moisturizer

Wonderstruck by Taylor Swift

Wonderstruck and Lotus with a peeking amika!

 

 I am a bit of a nail polish hoarder so this has already been used. I love the grayish tone to it, and it has just enough sparkle and shine. I am a huge fan of Zoya Products as it is so anytime I get one of this I am ecstatic!

While I still love my birchbox, I think they need to up the ante and get more beauty products to try, as in MAKEUP. I have so many soaps, oils and lotions and countless mini samples of perfume but I have my little survey set to "I like to try new makeup trends" and I have yet receive ANY new makeup trends. Face makeup or Eye makeup... Odd. What I will say for birchbox as a company is that when I recieved my last birchbox and the glass perfume sample had shattered they shipped another box to me without any additional costs. It was very nice, a WHOLE new box and not just the sample. Which in fact I loved because I got a different color of the nail polish and I LOVE the Shine perfume. Great work birchbox!
