My Top 5 Make Up Products

I have recently been asked what I wear for make up .
Here is my Top 5 Fave Make Up Products

1. Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Shadow & Liner
I was using a different product but found it didn't quite blend as nicely as I would like it too . I like the color combinations you get although the brush they give you really bites ,but I have my fave of them that I will share with you too.


2. Blinc Mascara                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                            
I love this and have been using this for 5 years now. I will never use anything again . It used to be called Kiss Me mascara and then was bought by a different company and had a  name change . You will have to use it once to know why I love it so much . That's all it took me . I had my make up done for a wedding  I was in at a Spa in Edmonton and never have used anything else since .

3.     Physicians Formula Organic Wear Loose Powder                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
I just really like it and have been using it for quite sometime .

4.Mary Kay  Mineral Bronzing Powder  - Dessert Sun                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

(sorry for the small picture)
I like the natural sun kissed look as I am not a tanning bed girl.

5.  Eco Tools 6 piece set                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             


                                
I have to apply my make up with something and I love these brushes because they are natural Eco product , they are super nice to apply and also cause they are available at Target .

Just like Christmas

when a online order arrives . Can place orders in your PJ's at anytime of day like when kids are sleeping . I had just placed a order with Diapers.com for the oblivious diapers but also my cleaning supplies , make up and body care products too. .My fil (father in law ) was so generous and picked up my order at Antler for me and dropped it off at my door step . Spoiled I know.
I am addicted to my new Green cleaning products .I now have no one complain that my house smells like vinegar anymore. Here's my all time fave product
You can find more info out on it here . My fave scent is the Lemon Verbena haven't adventured to use any of the others yet as I really like this natural fresh scent  . I have tried the all purpose cleaner, counter top cleaner ,dish liquid  and laundry soap ,so far not disappointed .One happy green mama here .

Jones Family likes to REPORT

Only one happy very active baby was inside this belly of mine. Hubby was very relieved . This baby is a mover no wonder I am so tired .  We are the crazy people that need to find out the sex of the baby so until next time .I am one of those crazy ladies that need to have everyone ready . SO I have a week of clothes set out for the kids labelled by date they should wear it . Now don't get any ideas that  I am organized in my everyday life believe me I am not . We will find out who is causing this over tired mom .Will we share or not we are undecided at this time . With our first we told everyone and with our second we only shared with immediate family now that doesn't mean that there were not  leaks as I heard there were a few .

Busy Week

I have a crazy busy week going to happen this week .
Monday is my ONLY home day
Tuesday Regina for Ultrasound (have alittle mommy guilt going on as we are leaving the girls with my mom this day )as soon as wee get back to pick up the girls from moms hubby is hopping in his truck and heading to Minot Ag days .UGH.
Wednesday Addy has pre k and skating
Thursday Addy has music class at Oxbow then we are heading to Minot for the night to spend a little time with dad
Friday we get home from Minot
Saturday is my Big girls actual birthday and depending on how we feel might have a surprise adventure this day too .


But today I am looking forward to trying out my new huge jet tub and maybe I will hop in our spa shower too . LOL . I am a bath kinda girl and I have not had a bath since we have been here I have showered . SO I am really looking forward to my bath .

(pictures were took off the Internet)
So looking forward to getting it all plumbed in today :)

Here's a peek at my hubby's shower .
I would say this is my dream bathroom not my hubby's as it would have to have a T.V in it for him to be a dream .
So looking forward to have it all done it's been a long haul for this Reno .Now we are finishing up the mudroom .

Not from Scratch

I had 20 minutes to lunch and like to give my family a nutritious lunch ,but just not sure what to make . I grabbed a recipe book down and looked what I had in my fridge (need to go grocery shopping ).
So I found a Quick broccoli soup .
This recipe called for 1 can of mushroom soup and one soup can of milk ,then let that boil while mixing it well.
I then added 1cup of broccoli and one cup of marble cheese (it asked for cheddar but marble was all I had .Still worked well)
with a dash of Worcestershire sauce . Cook for 5minutes and then let simmer until broccoli is tender .
A quick lunch and everyone loved it !

I am bushed ......

tired ,exhausted , beat , burned out, broken down , drowsy , drained , spent , worn , wasted , fatigued , finished , played out , sleepy, tuckered out , dog tired and just have  petered out .I have been barely getting through a day and have been getting 12-14 hours sleep a day .Crazy I know ,but this baby is kicking my A__ these days and well honestly its probably my thyroid out of whack again . I have just got my blood work checked out so I am sure I will be getting a call from the doctor soon enough . And Yes the doc does call me that's how bad my thyroid gets from time to time . That the big guy calls me not the front desk lady . you know he means business when he calls . A friend of mine says I am so tired  cause there is TWO babies in the belly  and they are playing me out . Not sure about that would love to have one more but not sure if I want two at once but I am sure we can manage one way or another . We will find out this coming week if there is one or two . Keep you posted !!

Pinkalicious Silly Monkey Party

We had a joined party for our girls theme being Pinkalicious Silly Monkey . Pinkalicious coming from this story (this story is absolutely adorable ) and that it would be unexpected for me to have a pink explosion all over my house as I really dislike pink and anyone that knows me knows this . Silly monkey comes from our little girl when she was a baby her big sister would call her a silly monkey and it just stuck .

I had cream soda floats , marshmallow chocolate treats , glass containers filled with pink sweets , pictures of the girls , their pinata and of course the book of Pinkalicious !
ME handing floats to our guests !(notice I am wearing pink )

Pinkalicious Family . Even dad is pretty in pink !

Our Silly little monkey opening presents .Shes not sure what she thinks of it all !

And Addy our addicted Pinkalicious story reader .I am certain we have read it a 100X at least .She even knows when you TRY to make it shorter by missing words cause she knows every word of it !
