Reading the days away.....

I go through spurts of reading. Sometimes I'll read a few books in a week, other times it'll take me forever to read one book. Since having S, I'm not as good as I used to be. But lately, I've been on a reading kick. It also helps that I have been downloading them to my Nook Tablet, and I feel like I read a lot faster. Not sure if it's true or not, but let's go with it. HA!

So in the last few weeks, here are some books I've read.

50 Shades of Grey Trilogy



Okay, okay, I bought into the hype. But, let me tell you, I was intrigued and fell in love with the characters. YES, there is a lot of sex going on in the books, but if you can get past that, there is a great love story forming in the background. {Book #2 was my FAVORITE! I read it in one day.}


James Patterson 11th Hour



JP is one of my favorite author's. I love his style of writing. Every time I read one of his books, I feel as if I just watched it in movie form. This book was part of his Women's mystery murder books. Again, great book!


Right now I'm finishing up reading James Patterson's Guilty Wives.




I already have Divergent and Insurgent downloaded for my next reads. And next month, I'm looking forward to downloading the new Emily Giffin book, Where We Belong.

So, any good Summer reads in your library?

My Best Friend's wedding

One of my best friends from college, and sorority sister, Cher was married this past weekend. I had the honor of doing her makeup. She is so gorgeous, so it was such an easy job! Isn't she just stunning!?!





Congratulations on your wedding day Cher! I wish you all the happiness in the world! Love you!

MAC Pro Haul

Hi Friends!
Earlier this week I went to the MAC Pro store in Orlando, Florida. I love going in there! It's like my candy shop. I had to contain myself and only bought what I really needed. My husband was very proud of me. lol

Here's a quick haul video on what I bought:






Thanks for watching!

Jacksonville Fashion Week announcement

Hi friends!! Sorry I've been MIA, but I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I have been working my tail off.

I just received amazing news today and am so excited that I can finally share:

I was asked to be on the makeup team for Jacksonville Fashion Week!!

I am honored to have been asked back to JFW, as I worked is last year as well. The ladies I am working with are such talented artists, I can't wait.

Here is a link to our profiles: http://jaxfashionweek.com/about/jfw-makeup-team/


I'm sure I'll have lots of pictures to share after the event in March.

P.S. I have lots of makeup looks to share and maybe even a few giveaways.....STAY TUNED!

Climb every mountain....

Yesterday, hubs decided we should climb Camelback mountain....with S in tow. He said, it'll be fun. I think he means to say "funny" bc of the expression on my face. Ha!
I gave in and we went. Can I just tell you, my legs were shaking at some parts. Not bc I'm out of shape (which I am) but because I was so nervous that S would fall. I think my muscles were worked more from the shakes than from the climb. Lol

In the end, we only made it up about 1/3 of the way. S was tired and starting to get clumsy.

Even though I was scared for most of the trip, it was beautiful up there and I'm glad we did it.

Here are some pictures I took with my phone.









































Have a good weekend!

Happy Friday!

Y'all, I was laughing so hard this Jimmy Kimmel live challenge. Had to share

What happens when you're not watching...

S was a little too quiet this morning.

Guess this is what happens when you're mom is a makeup artist. Hahaha
Not sure if hubby will like this...

Happy Thursday!
