Christmas Wishlist

Oh how I love the holiday season! I love everything about it... Christmas baking, shopping, parties, decorating, new Yankee Candle scents, and time with family and friends. We're hosting our 1st annual Christmas party here at the house and I'm super excited! Pinterest has been my lifesaver with the planning!  But in the midst of all the yummy cookies, egg nog, and gatherings, my H and our families ask for my wish list.  It took me a little while to compile this year's wish list: Bathtub...

Why I Left MAC for Sephora

I was a loyal MAC cosmetics customer for almost 10 years, and I still love their products don't get me wrong! But a girl needs some incentives! All MAC ever did for me was give me free shipping codes all.the.time... oh and I love their "bring back to MAC" program of bringing back 6 compacts for them to recycle and they'll give you a free lipstick or eye shadow. Buuuuut... Sephora has the wonderful Beauty Insider and VIB program. Being a Beauty Insider opens up the doors to lots of rewards and offer...

I Love Long Weekends

Oh how I love long holiday weekends! I knew it would go by fast, but we enjoyed every second of it. We had a nice Thanksgiving dinner at the house (I was happy to break out our wedding china) and then we walked down the street and had dessert with some of our neighbors. Mmmmm pumpkin cheesecake! That night, we decided to join all the crazies and try to snag some deals. It makes me so sad that the sales get more and more out of control and start earlier and earlier each year. Remember when...
