Ipsy has made its way as a fierce competitor in subscription services. They have, for the most part, worked out their growing pain issues from early 2012. There are very few shipping or broken item...
I'm not a blush girl, but I gave this one a whirl. Not a bad color for me, but I still prefer bronzer to blush. I have natural pink pigmentation where blush would be applied and this is virtually...
Best color for my skin (light with yellow undertones). Looks fairly natural except on the knees and ankles. It soaks in quick so you don't bleed onto clothes, but don't get it wet in the first...
- I just got my grades back and I officially passed my first semester of nursing school
- The semester being over means I get 4 weeks off (SO MUCH SLEEP!!!)
- My awesome husband, who has been waking up with our 3 year old daughter almost evry morning so I can sleep in since I'm SO tired all the time right now
- Upcoming holidays mean I get to see family that I only see once or twice a year
- My daughter. Everything about her. She gets sweeter every day. I'm overwhelmed with how much I love her.
- Her little sister is due in 8 weeks! This pregnancy has flown by, and I'm so ready to meet her!

So jealous! How did you like the first semester? Got any pointers/things you wish you'd done prior to starting?

It was great! I wish I would have taken my anatomy and physiology class before applying, because having nursing and a&p (and morning sickness, haha) was really tough, but all in all it went really well. I loved the class and felt like I was exactly where i was supposed to be the whole semester. I'm honestly bummed that I have to drop out of the program for a bit (I'll still be taking classes, just not nursing classes, since I can't be licensed if I miss any clinicals and childbirth and rigid schedules dont mix :P )
1. My children and hub are all safe and home tonight.
2. I am currently eating fresh home made pizza with a big glass of iced tea while my dachshund sleeps on my foot and my hub snores in the recliner. Good times :)
3. My dad got some good medical news after worrying for awhile.
I am sure there are many more things but I am tired and it's late lol
Last night, my 8 year old niece was showing me what she got for her birthday. Her favorite was a makeup kit from my parents. I watched her do her makeup too, and she is too funny. She watches a lot of makeup tutorial videos on youtube, so she was contouring her nose even, with a light/pale eyeshadow. She was telling me what she was doing, step by step, and it was so cute. I let her do my makeup too, and she did a nice job (though I wouldn't put pink eyeshadow on myself!) She used like 4 colors, doing a gradient. I'm so tempted to put her on youtube!
Last night, I spent 4 hours helping my "other" mother wrap Christmas presents and catching up, chatting and whatnot. It's a close friend's mom and she considers me part of their family, and I as well. Since my mom passed away several years ago, I relish having an older woman to be able to talk to and do the mom/daughter things. Plus, I love wrapping up gifts and find it relaxing. It's fun and I adore bows and ribbons, also the thought of how excited people are when they have a present to rip open.
I just made an order and should finally obtain VIB status with Sephora! Lol, silly to be so excited, but yep, I am! Plus, one more night of work and then I'm off for several days and can get to baking last minute Christmas treats!
One of my daughters. She just got a new dress that she is twirling around the living room in like a butterfly. She just looks so pretty. Treasured mom moments
