So far, our 2019 year has not gone according to plan. It has been filled with demo, rubble, water damage, medical bills, destruction, rebuilding, financial stress, tears, sweat, and some pain, physically - like when Kevin hammered his thumb instead of the nail, 😮 and some emotionally - like the several unexpected medical bills that …

Finally back to playing and reviewing!! I had to take a few weeks off due to an eye infection that would. not. go. away!! So let's start with week 4. The palette of the week was "Sarah's Creation". Basically a compilation of single shadows I put in to a magnetic palette I purchased off of …
Are you familiar with The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman? If you aren't, I encourage you to check out the link and read up on this concept. I think it is very beneficial for your relationship with your spouse as well as with your children (there is a children's version so you can learn …

My experience with PUR eyeshadow palettes has been, meh. They haven't been pigmented, they didn't blend well, and I …

My Pastor spoke at this service last year and was asked to speak at this service again this year. I was very honored, nervous, surprised, and humbled that he would give me the opportunity …

Wow, where to start. Sleep would be nice, but that is non-existent currently. So let's start with what's on my heart right now. I failed tonight. I had a #parentingblooper moment. The season of life we are in has been tough, to put it mildly. Not only is it winter, rainy and dreary outside, but …
