Fancy Friday

PASTEL Colored Hair

Bright colors are fun in your hair but I am in love with pastel colors. The colors are just so soft and pretty.

I have the biggest urge to put some color in my hair. 

I think this has to do with me getting ready for Denver and starting art school again. When I was in Portland I had blue in my hair and I loved it. 

^ Blue.. Winter 2011. 

I'm very tempted to put some lavender in more then anything, I just don't know how it would look with my burgundy colored hair.
Maybe in the spring I will dye my hair a light brown and put some lavender in with it.
I would fancy that.

Thankful Thursday

Today Keiran and I went on an early morning drive so I could take some photographs. 

He was a sweetheart and didn't mind being ready by 6:30 a.m.

I am thankful today of the beautiful place I call Home. There is so much beauty around my hometown. 

We drove out to Springdale, such a quiet and quaint place.

I am also thankful Keiran came along with me today too, he made it very enjoyable.

Thankful Thursday.

I'm thankful for hot tea, especially green tea which makes me feel all healthy and such. 

I'm thankful for my healthy skin, it has been amazingly clear the last few days. 

I'm thankful for my new pretty backpack, so convenient and who else tots a backpack around instead of a purse? 

I'm thankful for my friend Breanna, we have been close for many years, but I feel that lately we are closer then ever. By the way...I heard baby Korbyn's heartbeat yesterday when I went to her doctors appointment with her! 

I'm  thankful for redbox, I have been craving a movie, craft, and frozen yogurt day and today it shall happen.

I'm thankful that I finally got the courage to dye my hair the color I've been wanting  for a long while. 

This is my Thankful Thursday

Merry Early Christmas to me. I'm so thankful for such wonderful parents.

They picked me up from volunteering yesterday and started driving to the plaza...I asked "why are we here?" They said they needed to pick somethings up. I was cool with that, I enjoy the plaza. I knew we would get lunch out of it anyway.

We went to a shop so Mom could pick up some Christmas gifts then they said "We might as well go visit Armando while we are here" Armando owns a jewelry store in the plaza where my Mom got her fire opal. He has become a friend of ours now. When we went in the store Mom and Ed said "Merry Early Christmas...Armando knows the budget, pick what you want." I was so excited!

I really do love his work, however, a lot of the pieces he was showing me were not something I would wear or that suited me. I am picky when it comes to such nice jewelry, it makes me nervous sometimes. I was started to feel very nervous that I wouldn't find anything that suited me well enough.

Finally my eyes laid on this beauty. It has my name written all over it, it's so me. It is custom made by Armando, notice the detail? The stone is a polished ruby.

Now every time I look at it I can remember my time in Mexico, what I learned, and all of the things I have achieved while being here. I will remember the good I did with all of the volunteer work as well.

I love it so much, I never want to take it off. It is such a treasure to me.

Applesauce Face.

I like my skin.

I like food.

I like food facial masks.

This is however the first food mask I have tried and quite enjoy it.

This certain mask is suppose to help with acne & smooth your skin.

It was so gentle on my skin & now my skin feels like a baby's butt.

Added bonus? You can eat it without having to call poison control.

Here is the how-to.

One medium apple and 5 Tbs. Honey.

Peel and chop apple.

Add apple and honey to your Mom's Ninja.

Puree.

Wash your face with warm water.

Smear babyfood looking mush to your cute face.

Wait 15-20 minutes.

Rinse well with warm water.

Look in the mirror and say "You're lookin' gooooood."

The end.

Enjoy!

Hair Mask to come.
