10.3.09 - A Bachlorette Party

Miss Sarah's getting MARRIED!!!! T minus 1 week!!!

It was a rather relaxed night, which was just fine with me. :o) I was up too early... 5 AM, due to the fact that I had went to bed at 10. It didn't help that hubby was getting up to go bow hunting very soon thereafter, so I just decided to stay up. I relaxed, watched some TV... painted my nails (Ki by Zoya, no pics though) and eventually got ready.

I wanted to try out my new MAC Greasepaint Stick & MES Shadow, so that's what I opted for. :o)

1.18.09 - Circuit City goes out of business... and a little Bump Bump Bump

So we went shopping today. :o) We really wanted a Blu-Ray player, but ended up with a XBOX 360 Elite. We have been wanting one for a while, b/c ours only has a 20GB HD (Elite has 120GB) and ours is 3 years old and doesn't have a HDMI port. We also got a black wirless controller (so we have 4 total), a 1 year LIVE Memebership (for me), 4000 XBOX Points & Rock Band Drum Pad Silencers. All 10% off! ((Yes, even the LIVE membership & Points.)) I'm a bit sad, though... The controller was $50 and I just saw Wal-Mart has them for $40. We paid $45 with the 10% off, but still. I also just got 2 recharable black batteries on eBay for the controllers... $16/ea. They are $12 on Wal-Mart. D'Oh. Stupid me. OH WELL. Kinda like my DF buying TWO sets of headlights for his RC Truck... yea. Oh, and I wore a little BumpIt!

11.22.08 - Engagement Photos

We finally had them done, even though we've been engaged for over a year, LOL. We had orginaly planned to have family photos for Brad's side, but a few certain family members were acting childish (a 30 y.o. and his 24 y.o. wife) so we just had engagement photos done. I was happy to find out our setting fee was including with our wedding photos, so we didn't owe a dime today, yippie!!!

These photos were taken 6 hours after I did my make-up, because immediately after our e-pics we ate dinner with our mom's, visited my parents for a while & then visited Brad's parents.

11.6.08 - MAC Purples

Well, I did like 3 vids tonight, so I'll have to edit them all in the AM and get them uploaded. :o)

The first video I did on blowing my hair out. Not that it was requested, but I love the turnout and I'm so pleased I figured out a routine that works for me, and it might just help someone else.



The 2nd was on tonight's looks, I'll get to that in a second...

The 3rd was a "What's in your Bag" Tag... I was tagged by Brittney, but it looks like her account is missing. :o( Anyways, I'm not sure who I'm tagging yet, but I did the vid, it's kinda boring, haha.



I was going to do a Haul Vid, however, I was running out of time, and thought I'd just tell ya'all what I got from MAC last week:


Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation NC25
Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Medium
Mineralize Skinfinish Petticoat
Studio Finish SPF 30 Concealer NC20

I love it all!!!

Okay, back to today's look... I was inspired by magi's post... now I'm sure it's not as good as hers, but I love the results. I wish I had more time to pick out a better lippie, though.
