LipSense

beauty lovers:

I wanted to let you in on a little secret! I have found this amazing lipstick, called LipSense. It's very similar to MAC, Stila, Makeup Forever, etc.

The only difference is LipSense lasts all day through eating, kissing, drinking, talking... everything.

As a makeup lover, I have spent a lot of money trying to find lipstick that doesn't smudge and stays on all day- and unfortunately found this after spending a ton on other brands.
This stuff is the real deal!!

wedded bliss

Well, we've been married for a few months now.

things i love about being married:

- my husband

- having our own place to call home

- laughing all night with my husband

- pillow talk (with my hunky hubby)

- grocery shopping for 2 is so much easier than for 1

- snuggles 

....maybe it's all sappy cheesy stuff, but i love my husband so much.

i lucked out with him, he is the perfect person for me.

wedding checklist

hey engaged ladies,

i had about...oh let's see... 4 friends get engaged in the last 2 weeks.
are you kidding me?! ahhhhh

if you've ever planned a wedding, you know how stressful it can be!  trust me, i know it is!
i have been planning my own wedding since I got engaged back in December.  There is so much to plan....

so here's some suggestions i have for you:

1 - Get your wedding date selected
2 - Set a budget (crucial to do this)
3 - Get your wedding "theme" decided (colors, theme, etc)
4 - Select a venue
5 - Pick out your dress - this is a big one
6 - Select attire for the groom, wedding party, and anyone else you'll be "dressing" for the event

Once you have these major things set up, you can navigate the smaller details of a wedding....
from.... getting your honeymoon booked, picking your wedding song, choosing your shoes....

I will be back on here periodically to show you how I have been planning my own wedding.

day 1

...of the new job.
i got a new job with a software company, which i am super excited about! 
this is my career i am pursuing and have debated on making a change for awhile.

i miss the crafting world, but sales is where my heart is (and the moola. boom baby)

bambooHR is so cool that i even got #tshirtswag my very first day.
yet another new adventure to add to the list this summer.

i have sat here over and over again....thinking of what to write.
i have written posts....then deleted them.  this has gone on for about the past 3 months.

i have a love/hate relationship with blogging.
i used to want to make money off of my blog and get hundred of followers and readers.
i am a 20-something year old.
i am not in high school.
my blog is not a popularity contest.

my blog is me.
this blog reflects who i am and who i am trying to become.
i don't want to be too personal, but hey, no one writes the rules to the blogosphere.

life lately has been a big bowl of emotions for me.
i lost a dear friend, my best friend.  but she isn't dead.
rather, she is serving the LDS church on a mission.  #proudsistermoment

yes, she is my eternal sister.  i love her dearly and miss her every minute of every day.

i have gained a new best friend. Mister S.  i love who i am when i am with him.  he gets me.

i have made several new friends.
i have become a teacher (a church teacher), which is the scariest thing, but the most rewarding thing for me.
i have developed deeper relationships with my grandparents, whom i love and adore.

my life is a journey.  a journey and not a destination.
my life is blessed.
i am happy to be living it.

andi is an amazing lady.

i am so thankful for a best friend like her.

andi is going to be serving an LDS mission!

i am so excited for her and so proud of her.

we got to go to the LDS temple with her a few weeks back and it was such a beautiful day.

i am so thankful for temples and the blessings found there.

we, as an LDS people, are blessed to have temples on the earth.

literally, for me, the temple is heaven on earth.

love you ands.

has it truly been almost 1 month to the day that i haven't posted?
what is this blog coming to?!

i have missed the blogging world, but then again, not really.
it's so freeing to not have to stress out about blogging.

i still love reading everyone's blogs, but i haven't made time to comment.
i am so sorry my dear friends.

how have you been?  anything new going on that i need to make note of?!

God's grace.

i am a happy lady.

God is full of grace, mercy, truth, and love.

i have been blessed with a wonderful family.

fabulous friends.

i have a wonderful job, which i love.

i love my roommates.

i am thankful for change.

there are some exciting changes coming up in my life and i am looking forward to those.

i have been struggling a little bit with trust God, but i had a great convo with a dear friend

who told me to give all my worries and stresses up to the Lord.

May I just say that it works.

God is so wonderful. 

He takes care of me and my little individual needs.

I know God knows me and my name.

I am so thankful for my religion and the principles and doctrine it teaches.

i am looking forward to becoming a better version of myself.

thanks be to God for His grace, mercy, goodness, love, trust, and friendship.

happy monday, dears.

forward.
