The Pony-Bun Hair Tutorial

This is an extremely easy way to 

pull your hair back and make it

look like it took longer than 5 min to throw back.

And look like you actually have somewhere to go,

other than the park or the grocery store.

(which Im sure most of you do. 

I, on the other hand, do not.)

Ok, so I do this hairstyle when no other hairstyle 

will suffice. It may look like my hair is all fine and 

dandy.  But rest assured, it is not.

Pinterest Challenge Update: Cookie Oreo Brownies

My sister and I challenged each other

to make something form one of our 

Pinterest pinboards.

For my item to be re-created from Pinterest,

I chose this amazingly delicious looking recipe.

I mean, really, who wouldnt want to make that?

And I totally needed an excuse to do it,

because, ladies and gentlemen, 

It. Is. Sinful.

Pinterest Challenge

So, The Sis and I are doing a 

Pinterest Challenge.

She picks 3 things from my various 

pin boards and I from hers.

And then the other person gets to pick one

of the items that they want to re-create.

I chose a dessert, and had The Hus

go get me the items while he was out,

literally like 5 minutes later.

(it looked that good..)

It has oreos in it, but I wont ruin the surprise.

Now, the real challenge is

not eating all the oreos,

before I make the treat.

And trust me, its turning out to be 

A. Real. Challenge.

Also, pps. there were a few bugs 

in my Weekend Wardrobe Link Party,

lucky for you, all the bugs are out, and you

can now add your weekend wardrobe.

Weekend Wardrobe Link Party

So I saw this idea, first on The Letter 4 blog.

I thought it was such a great idea, that I 

wanted to extend it to my blog 

and you all as well.

Its like a craft link party, but for clothes.

Yum.

Double points if you made an item yourself.

Although, were not keeping score.

I usually go on hiatus on the weekends,

from the blog, since we get so crazy busy.

But clothes, I can do that.

I get ready for church every Sunday,

so luckily, (hopefully)

I can do this post every weekend.

Heres what I wore today:

High waisted black ruffle skirt.

Cream loose fitted top.

Black lace tights.

Black heels.

Being Creative Is Learned

"Im SOO not creative."

I hear that statement ALL the time.

Really, I get it.

I didnt used to always think like this either. 

I used to get super annoyed when I 

would walk around Target with 

The Hus when we were first married,

and I would say,

"Ooo, I love that wreath, and wow, its on sale for $15!"

And then he would burst my bubble

and say something like

"Psh, who would pay $15 for that thing?! I could make it for $5"

So, We Bought A Fish

My kid loves animals,

every time we are at the doctors

he goes and sits right by the huge 

aquarium and talks to the fish.

If we hear a dog outside

he yells out the window

"Sorry dog, I cant play right now, Im watching a show!"

(I was serious about the yelling)

So, last time we were at the pet store

he was talking to the fish and showing them

his toys.

(he has friends I promise)

So I decided its high time we get a pet.

Oh, heavens. 

What was I thinking!
