Happy birthday, to the worlds best mom

Okay, so I might be a little biased by saying “the worlds best” but quite honestly.. I think the world of her!

You want to know who was one of the first people to know that Shane and I were pregnant with our three littles? My Mom

You want to know who I asked to be in my delivery room, each and every time? My mom

You want to know who was there the day Rochelle took her last breath in the hospital? My mom

You see an underlying theme right? My mom has got to the be the best friend, parent, grandparent, and more that you could ever ask for.  She supports my goals, hopes, and dreams, and she always keeps me grounded.  It’s so nice to know that not a day has gone by in the last 28 years, that she hasn’t done everything she could for me, and for that, I will be forever grateful.

Happy BIRTHday mom!! I love you SO SO much!! (we will be celebrating tonight for dinner, can’t wait!!)

How Lush!

For my birthday, my best friend bought me some fresh handmade cosmetics and I couldn’t wait to share them with the world! Lush cosmetics is a great line for women who are looking to stay all natural in their products, and know that what they are using on their body is good for them and the environment.

Each product is handmade and made right there in the back of their stores.

The gift box Krystle got me was compiled up of six products.  All the products are made to be used during the bath/shower and they smell amazing!  I have used a couple of them already and they literally leave your skin feeling so soft and so smooth! I can’t wait to especially use the facial moisturizer, because my skin is constantly dry!

The boxing is amazing and chic, and it list all the ingredients of each product, in the box.

If you are looking for a all natural approach to your skin and the make-up you use, this product is definitely for you!

Here is the link to their shop:

Celebrating 7th anniversary of my 21st!

28

This year I wanted to do something a little different. Turning 28 definitely has opened my eyes to so much.  I definitely value the little things in life, so much more!

We decided to go out to eat at my favorite restaurant (Chuy’s in Austin, Tx), and then go out to do some bowling, play some pool, and just have some good ol’ fun.

Sweet little prayer

As Shane and I were on our were to church (which never happens, because I work weekends and always meet him and the kids there), I started to notice myself getting frustrated at the little things.. (wondering why we were running late, how all the kids would behave, etc etc.) and as Shane drove, I stopped and said a little prayer ” Lord, please know that I realize that even though today is my birthday, and I just want everything to work out with our plans, it’s okay if it doesn’t and I know that everything will be good enough, the way you intend it to be”.

What happened next at church, was a miracle! Did the baby just sleep through the entire sermon?  Did Brielle just stay quiet and behave? Did little man actually not screech/yell at all during the sermon?  It wasn’t a miracle, it was God answering my prayer.

It was amazing, and I was SO happy, that I wanted to capture the moment, and cherish it forever.  (The baby was sleeping so she wasn’t in the picture).

So after everyone (including Shane) had a nap, I took the time to clean the dishes and take some pictures of my amazing roses Shane bought me and the adorable pink cupcakes him and Brielle made for me.  They are amazing!

Then it was time for some family fun time (bowling and dinner) and everyone was well-rested and ready to go!  We drove about 40 minutes from our hometown to go bowling (since our small down doesn’t have fun activities such as this nearby!) and it was such a great decision! It’s such a fun competitive sport, and will definitely remind you of all the fun times you had when you were younger and going bowling!  I won the first game by 1 point, and then my mom won the second game, and we had such a fun time supporting everyone in each game! Shane’s family were playing in the lane next to us, and it was so fun!

Then we all went out to eat, and had tons of laughs filled with great food and great conversations.  I couldn’t have wanted more!  Thank you to all of the people who wished me a happy birthday, or sent me sweet messages!! I love you all!! Cheers to 28!!
