Cute Outfit

So today i wasn't in the mood to really get all cute, but with my hefty button up vest and shiny purple nail polish, i go all chick without knowing it and putting alot of effort in it! So i go to my mom to paint this funky color on my nails (since i do a horrible job at finger painting) It's girly, punkish and flirty all at the same time! Cool for my youth group tonight! :)

Next, this tuxedo vest which my uncle gave me is so awesome! it is a life saver and compliments any outfit i were. Today im wearing it with non-fitted jean shorts and a plain regular cut grey tee-shirt with a logo, and it looks tom boyish, plus super trendy!

This one is like it, just mine is a dark navy blue and a shiny fabric on the back! So fun!

These little things make a big difference and i love the look it gives me!

Gourmet Sandwiches and Clogged Sinks

How was your Easter everyone?

Our was very different then we've ever had it. Difference number one, we didn't paint eggs. We didn't do it because with all the babies and work going on, it would be too much, and it would have definably have been. it was a very different Easter, but still very fun!

Difference number two, we had an Easter make-your-dream-sandwich buffet instead of an traditional Easter dinner and pie. The reason why we didn't have the traditional dindin was because we had no place to seat all of the family. i did fancy the sandwich idea, for we had a lot of choices to make them BLT's, Chicken Salad Sandwiches or a regular meat and cheese sandwich. Yum!

The munchkins had a Easter egg hunt in the back yard. Instead of using all eggs, my Mom mixed it up with mini cereal boxes and Capri suns. Somewhat strange, but i thought i was very original and crafty! Isaiah was so cute, trying to hold all the eggs at once! I think he understood the concept more this year, then last. Of course though, out of all the babies Ava got most of the supply of candy and snacks!

That was our very cool Easter! We didn't go by all the traditions, and that was all right. My Mom said one time that sometimes Traditions take away all the glory of the holiday because we try to do the tradition more then celebrate being together, and i believe her. It takes away the glory of the occasion sometimes and strays away from what we're really celebrating! Wise words, Mom!

Today was a somewhat crazy day. I went to bed at four, sewing like mad, while watching Aquamarine and Angus, Thongs and the Perfect Snogging. I got up after Isaiah which was 10:45! I never knew a 1 year old could sleep that long! (but he did look bigger today too)

Ate a protein bar and a glass of water, got dressed and ready, then started doing the dishes.

Dishes, a very evil thing to a teen.

The last few weeks I've been keeping the kitchen clean and tidy, while my Mom, Dad and Sarah sewed and watched the babes (just so you know, sewing is very important in our family, so we're not doing it as a hobbie! :P)

So i was putting the dishes into the washer, listening to my the TING TINGS on my Sansa, and turned on the garbage disposal to drain the disgusting sink. To my surprise, it only made a weird purring sound and did nothing at all! Oh my, the things that happen in life!

Yeah, so i basically ditched it and came here to confess my frustrations. I'll just have to wait till my Mom gets back to help fix it! Or my Dad.

P.S

I SO want this!

Why i LOVE the Dollar Store!

So today, my Mom, Aunt, Sis and i had a ladies day! (No babies included!) We went to a Mary Kay's party, ate at the delicious Pita Jungle, grabbed a mint chocolate chip waffle cone and ventured to the 99 cent store! My fav! The dollar store is so amazing in so many ways! You will find things you never expect (weird or not) and be equally fascinated. I have and always will be.

When i was little, i would love to go to the dollar store and get a treat (back then kids thought lead plastic toys were GREAT!) I was more in love with the notebooks! I still obsess over paper for some unknown reason. Maybe it's my writer gene?

So anyways, we walk in and the sunglasses stand is there. My curious self went to go and browse and was surprised. Their choices were not bad! So not bad that i found the cutest, stylish yellow eighties glasses that look so hip! And i look good in them! (It's hard to find the right look for me) These are the best i can find that look like them, but the strips are in the rounded nose part and theres no hole! Its so cute!

And to top it off, i was wearing my hair in an adorable side bun! So its made me look sassy, cute and a college student!

My next find is strange but totally awesome at the same time! And only a dollar!

Yes it is Paris Hilton! It's like a diary with things you fill out, but with pics of Paris Hilton on each page! I'm not a fan of her but the books a hardcover, cool for boredom and for my crazy teen self! Ha!

Yeah so the dollar store is cool and thats that! You find crazy music there, movies, books, whatever that your curious mind wants! So venture forward readers, ones that may never go to the dollar store, for it is great and a laugh for us all!

Shopping with a Cause

I love it when business donate to organizations! I think its so cool and generous of people to give part of their profit to others in need! These are some cool sights that give a very awesome donation to someone in need when you purchase something!

http://www.envibum.com/index.html is a fantastic natural cloth diaper company! Every diaper that is purchased, envibum donates $2 to a certain charity! Moms and Dads will certainly love it!

http://www.imtiredonline.com/ is so great and caring! With every $10 bracelet you buy, $5 is donated to a charity of your choice! How awesome is that?

https://shop.thebreastcancersite.com/store/site.do?siteId=224 is very purposeful to those who want to help and SHOP at the same time! This site helps breast cancer, hunger, animals, etc, when you purchase something from their site! Shopping with a purpose!

http://www.wildolivetees.com/ is a Christian owned business by Moms! They sells cute tee shirts and 10% of their profit goes to Christian organization! Go Jesus!

This list may be small, these companies are making a BIG difference to our world, inside and out! i want to thank all the companies i didnt list and dont know about, that im so happy and proud that there are people out there who are selfless to give to the ones who dont have what we have!

Blessings!

Eco Tips for You and Me!

Are you ever wondering how to make Eco friendly decisions? It doesn't have to take much to make a difference at home, school or any where you go! Cutting back on certain things can do so much, like even turning off the facet when you brush you're teeth. A classic, but very important! Below are tips that you can easily adjust into your life and love to do at the same time!

1. After using the computer, i always put it on stand by. Not only does it use NO power, i can easily turn it on less then thirty seconds instead of shutting down the whole system!

2. When drinking out of a soda can, toss in the recycling instead of the regular trash, or smash and collect to earn some $.

3. Encourage your family to go to the farmers market! Not only is the veggie and fruit more local, its cheaper then the actual grocery store.

4. When taking a shower, use warm, but not hot water. Studies say using warm water over hot can lessen the chance of your skin drying out. Plus, it lowers the use of hot water wasted!

5. Volunteer or donate money to a organization that gives back to the earth!

6. To fragrance your room or house, take water and (real) essential oils and make a yummy room spray (totally works and freshens the house!) Store bought fragrance (artificial kinds) are bad for you and the environment! When buying one, make sure it's actually REAL essential oils, not fake ones!

7. Dont FORGET to turn off the lights when you leave the room! You can save ALOT of energy!

8. Have indoor plants in your room! Having plants in your room is so healthy! One, its a natural filter in your room and Two, it gives you more fresh air and natural deco!

9. Use organic hair products for your hair! Keep it healthy!

10. Be aware of your choices! Before you do something ask yourself, is this Eco friendly? Making the right decisions is the trail to a clean and healthy Earth!

These tips are fun, fresh and every day things we can change! It only takes you to change your life style and make better Earth aware choices! The Earth is counting on you! Make her proud!

Happy Eco Day!
